Commentary on Proverbs
No consigo encontrar dos expresiones que suenen naturales:
Sacrifices were appointed by God, they typified Christ, they were acceptable to God as expressions of faith and obedience; but they were detestable to him when they were valued ***on their own account***, as if they had been instituted ***for their own sake*** or to give men opportunity of pleasing God so much as to procure an allowance for the neglect of more important service.

se valoran por sí mismos / valor intrínseco,
...pero Dios los aborrece cuando dichos sacrificios se valoran por sí mismos, y no por lo representan, como si hubiesen sido creados con un valor intrínseco, o cuando se utilizan como un subterfugio o excusa para dejar de cumplir con otros deberes más importantes.

por sí solos - por su propia cuenta
Sacrificios fueron designados por Dios, tipificando a Cristo, eran aceptables a Dios como expresiones de fe y obediencia; pero eran detestables para él cuando se consideraban ***por sí solos***, como si hubieran sido instituidos ***por su propia cuenta*** o para dar al hombre una oportunidad de complacer a Dios de tal modo como para obtener una indulgencia por descuidar cosas de mas importancia

fueron valorados por sus propias acciones .... para su bienestar
It's difficult when it's about religion... I have translated some texts and words can have many different and deeper meanings. Good luck!
