Malachi 1:8-13

And if ye offer
<05066> (8686)
the blind
<05787>
for sacrifice
<02076> (8800)_,
[is it] not evil
<07451>_?
and if ye offer
<05066> (8686)
the lame
<06455>
and sick
<02470> (8802)_,
[is it] not evil
<07451>_?
offer
<07126> (8685)
it now unto thy governor
<06346>_;
will he be pleased
<07521> (8799)
with thee, or accept
<05375> (8799)
thy person
<06440>_?
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
{for: Heb. to}
And now, I pray you, beseech
<02470> (8761) <06440>
God
<0410>
that he will be gracious
<02603> (8799)
unto us: this hath been by your means
<03027>_:
will he regard
<05375> (8799)
your persons
<06440>_?
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
{God: Heb. the face of God} {by...: Heb. from your hand}
Who [is there] even among you that would shut
<05462> (8799)
the doors
<01817>
[for nought]? neither do ye kindle
<0215> (8686)
[fire] on mine altar
<04196>
for nought
<02600>_.
I have no pleasure
<02656>
in you, saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
neither will I accept
<07521> (8799)
an offering
<04503>
at your hand
<03027>_.
For from the rising
<04217>
of the sun
<08121>
even unto the going down
<03996>
of the same my name
<08034>
[shall be] great
<01419>
among the Gentiles
<01471>_;
and in every place
<04725>
incense
<06999> (8716)
[shall be] offered
<05066> (8716)
unto my name
<08034>_,
and a pure
<02889>
offering
<04503>_:
for my name
<08034>
[shall be] great
<01419>
among the heathen
<01471>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
But ye have profaned
<02490> (8764)
it, in that ye say
<0559> (8800)_,
The table
<07979>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] polluted
<01351> (8794)_;
and the fruit
<05108>
thereof, [even] his meat
<0400>_,
[is] contemptible
<0959> (8737)_.
Ye said
<0559> (8804)
also, Behold, what a weariness
<04972>
[is it]! and ye have snuffed
<05301> (8689)
at it, saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
and ye brought
<0935> (8689)
[that which was] torn
<01497> (8803)_,
and the lame
<06455>_,
and the sick
<02470> (8802)_;
thus ye brought
<0935> (8689)
an offering
<04503>_:
should I accept
<07521> (8799)
this of your hand
<03027>_?
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{and ye have...: or, whereas ye might have blown it away}
