Malachi 1:6-11

Rotherham(i) 6 A son, will honour a father, and, a servant, his lord,–– If then, a father, I am, where is mine honour? And, if, a lord, I am, where is my reverence? saith Yahweh of hosts–– to you, ye priests, who despise my Name, and yet say, Wherein have we despised thy Name? 7 In bringing near upon mine altar, polluted food, while yet ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? Because ye say, As for the table of Yahweh, a thing to be despised, it is; 8 And when ye bring near the blind as a sacrifice, [saying]––No harm! or when ye bring near the lame or the sick [saying]––No harm! Offer it, I pray you, unto thy pasha, Will he accept thee? or lift up thy countenance? saith Yahweh of hosts. 9 Now, therefore, pacify, I pray you, the face of GOD, that he may grant us favour,––at your hands, hath this come to pass, Will he lift up the countenances, of any of you? saith Yahweh of hosts. 10 Who is there, even among you, that will shut the doors, so as not to set light to mine altar, for nothing? I can take no pleasure in you, saith Yahweh of hosts, and, your present, can I not accept at your hand. 11 For, from the rising of the sun, even unto the going in thereof, great is my Name among the nations, and, in every place, incense, is offered to my Name, and a pure present,––for great is my Name among the nations, saith Yahweh of hosts.
