1The burden H4853 of the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 to Israel H3478 by H3027 Malachi H4401.

2I have loved H157 (H8804) you, saith H5002 (H8803) the LORD H3068. Yet ye say H559 (H8804), Wherein hast thou loved H157 (H8804) us? Was not Esau H6215 Jacob's H3290 brother H251? saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068: yet I loved H157 (H8799) Jacob H3290,

3And I hated H8130 (H8804) Esau H6215, and laid H7760 (H8799) his mountains H2022 and his heritage H5159 waste H8077 for the dragons H8568 of the wilderness H4057.

4Whereas Edom H123 saith H559 (H8799), We are impoverished H7567 (H8795), but we will return H7725 (H8799) and build H1129 (H8799) the desolate places H2723; thus saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635, They shall build H1129 (H8799), but I will throw down H2040 (H8799); and they shall call H7121 (H8804) them, The border H1366 of wickedness H7564, and, The people H5971 against whom the LORD H3068 hath indignation H2194 (H8804) for H5704 ever H5769.

5And your eyes H5869 shall see H7200 (H8799), and ye shall say H559 (H8799), The LORD H3068 will be magnified H1431 (H8799) from the border H1366 of Israel H3478.

6A son H1121 honoureth H3513 (H8762) his father H1, and a servant H5650 his master H113: if then I be a father H1, where is mine honour H3519? and if I be a master H113, where is my fear H4172? saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 unto you, O priests H3548, that despise H959 (H8802) my name H8034. And ye say H559 (H8804), Wherein have we despised H959 (H8804) thy name H8034?

7Ye offer H5066 (H8688) polluted H1351 (H8794) bread H3899 upon mine altar H4196; and ye say H559 (H8804), Wherein have we polluted H1351 (H8765) thee? In that ye say H559 (H8800), The table H7979 of the LORD H3068 is contemptible H959 (H8737).

8And if ye offer H5066 (H8686) the blind H5787 for sacrifice H2076 (H8800), is it not evil H7451? and if ye offer H5066 (H8686) the lame H6455 and sick H2470 (H8802), is it not evil H7451? offer H7126 (H8685) it now unto thy governor H6346; will he be pleased H7521 (H8799) with thee, or accept H5375 (H8799) thy person H6440? saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635.

9And now, I pray you, beseech H2470 (H8761) H6440 God H410 that he will be gracious H2603 (H8799) unto us: this hath been by your means H3027: will he regard H5375 (H8799) your persons H6440? saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635.

10Who is there even among you that would shut H5462 (H8799) the doors H1817 for nought? neither do ye kindle H215 (H8686) fire on mine altar H4196 for nought H2600. I have no pleasure H2656 in you, saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635, neither will I accept H7521 (H8799) an offering H4503 at your hand H3027.

11For from the rising H4217 of the sun H8121 even unto the going down H3996 of the same my name H8034 shall be great H1419 among the Gentiles H1471; and in every place H4725 incense H6999 (H8716) shall be offered H5066 (H8716) unto my name H8034, and a pure H2889 offering H4503: for my name H8034 shall be great H1419 among the heathen H1471, saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635.

12But ye have profaned H2490 (H8764) it, in that ye say H559 (H8800), The table H7979 of the LORD H3068 is polluted H1351 (H8794); and the fruit H5108 thereof, even his meat H400, is contemptible H959 (H8737).

13Ye said H559 (H8804) also, Behold, what a weariness H4972 is it! and ye have snuffed H5301 (H8689) at it, saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635; and ye brought H935 (H8689) that which was torn H1497 (H8803), and the lame H6455, and the sick H2470 (H8802); thus ye brought H935 (H8689) an offering H4503: should I accept H7521 (H8799) this of your hand H3027? saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068.

14But cursed H779 (H8803) be the deceiver H5230 (H8802), which H3426 hath in his flock H5739 a male H2145, and voweth H5087 (H8802), and sacrificeth H2076 (H8802) unto the Lord H136 a corrupt thing H7843 (H8716): for I am a great H1419 King H4428, saith H559 (H8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635, and my name H8034 is dreadful H3372 (H8737) among the heathen H1471.
