Malachi

  1   The H4853 burden   of   the H1697 word   of H3068 Jehovah   to H3478 Israel H3027 by H4401 Malachi.   2   I   have H157 loved   you, H5002 saith H3068 Jehovah.   Yet   ye H559 say,   Wherein   hast   thou H157 loved   us?   Was   not H6215 Esau H3290 Jacob's H251 brother? H559 saith H3068 Jehovah:   yet   I H157 loved H3290 Jacob;   3   but H6215 Esau   I H8130 hated,   and H7760 made   his H2022 mountains   a H8077 desolation,   and   gave   his H5159 heritage   to   the H8568 jackals   of   the H4057 wilderness.   4   Whereas H123 Edom H559 saith,   We   are H7567 beaten   down,   but   we   will H7725 return   and H1129 build   the   waste H2723 places;   thus H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts,   They   shall H1129 build,   but   I   will   throw H2040 down;   and   men   shall H7121 call   them   The H1366 border   of H7564 wickedness,   and   The H5971 people   against   whom H3068 Jehovah   hath H2194 indignation H5704 for H5769 ever.   5   And   your H5869 eyes   shall H7200 see,   and   ye   shall H559 say, H3068 Jehovah   be H1431 magnified   beyond   the H1366 border   of H3478 Israel.   6   A H1121 son H3513 honoreth   his H1 father,   and   a H5650 servant   his H113 master:   if   then   I   am   a H1 father,   where   is   mine H3519 honor?   and   if   I   am   a H113 master,   where   is   my H4172 fear? H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts   unto   you,   O H3548 priests,   that H959 despise   my H8034 name.   And   ye H559 say,   Wherein   have   we H959 despised   thy H8034 name?   7   Ye H5066 offer H1351 polluted H3899 bread   upon   mine H4196 altar.   And   ye H559 say,   Wherein   have   we H1351 polluted   thee?   In   that   ye H559 say,   The H7979 table   of H3068 Jehovah   is H959 contemptible.   8   And   when   ye H5066 offer   the H5787 blind   for H2076 sacrifice,   it   is   no H7451 evil!   and   when   ye H5066 offer   the H6455 lame   and H2470 sick,   it   is   no H7451 evil! H7126 Present   it   now   unto   thy H6346 governor;   will   he   be H7521 pleased   with   thee?   or   will   he H5375 accept   thy H6440 person? H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts.   9   And   now,   I   pray   you, H2470 entreat   the   favor   of H410 God,   that   he   may   be H2603 gracious   unto   us:   this   hath   been   by   your H3027 means:   will   he H5375 accept   any   of   your H6440 persons? H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts.   10   Oh   that   there   were   one   among   you   that   would H5462 shut   the H1817 doors,   that   ye   might   not H215 kindle   fire   on   mine H4196 altar   in   vain!   I   have H2600 no H2656 pleasure   in   you, H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts,   neither   will   I H7521 accept   an H4503 offering   at   your H3027 hand.   11   For   from   the H4217 rising   of   the H8121 sun   even   unto   the   going H3996 down   of   the   same   my H8034 name   shall   be H1419 great   among   the H1471 Gentiles;   and   in   every H4725 place H6999 incense   shall   be H5066 offered   unto   my H8034 name,   and   a H2889 pure H4503 offering:   for   my H8034 name   shall   be H1419 great   among   the H1471 Gentiles, H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts.   12   But   ye H2490 profane   it,   in   that   ye H559 say,   The H7979 table   of H3068 Jehovah   is H1351 polluted,   and   the H5108 fruit   thereof,   even   its H400 food,   is H959 contemptible.   13   Ye H559 say   also,   Behold,   what   a H4972 weariness   is   it!   and   ye   have H5301 snuffed   at   it, H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts;   and   ye   have H935 brought   that   which   was   taken   by H1497 violence,   and   the H6455 lame,   and   the H2470 sick;   thus   ye H935 bring   the H4503 offering:   should   I H7521 accept   this   at   your H3027 hand? H559 saith H3068 Jehovah.   14   But H779 cursed   be   the H5230 deceiver, H3426 who   hath   in   his H5739 flock   a H2145 male,   and H5087 voweth,   and H2076 sacrificeth   unto   the H136 Lord   a   blemished H7843 thing;   for   I   am   a H1419 great H4428 King, H559 saith H3068 Jehovah   of H6635 hosts,   and   my H8034 name   is H3372 terrible   among   the H1471 Gentiles.
