1 The burden H4853 of the word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS to H413 PREP Israel H3478 by H3027 B-CFS Malachi H4401 .
2 I have loved H157 VQQ1MS you , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS . Yet ye say H559 , Wherein H4100 hast thou loved H157 us ? Was not H3808 D-NPAR Esau H6215 Jacob H3290 \'s brother H251 NMS ? saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS : yet I loved H157 Jacob H3290 ,
3 And I hated H8130 Esau H6215 , and laid H7760 his mountains H2022 and his heritage H5159 waste H8077 for the dragons H8568 of the wilderness H4057 .
4 Whereas H3588 CONJ Edom H123 saith H559 VQY2MS , We are impoverished H7567 , but we will return H7725 and build H1129 the desolate places H2723 NFP ; thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , They H1992 PPRO-3MP shall build H1129 , but I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will throw down H2040 ; and they shall call H7121 W-VQQ3MP them , The border H1366 CMS of wickedness H7564 , and , The people H5971 against whom H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath indignation H2194 forever H5704 PREP .
5 And your eyes H5869 shall see H7200 , and ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP shall say H559 , The LORD H3068 EDS will be magnified H1431 from M-PREP the border H1366 of Israel H3478 LMS .
6 A son H1121 NMS honoreth H3513 his father H1 NMS , and a servant H5650 W-NMS his master H113 : if H518 W-PART then I H589 PPRO-1MS be a father H1 NMS , where H346 IGAT is mine honor H3519 ? and if H518 W-PART I H589 PPRO-1MS be a master H113 , where H346 IGAT is my fear H4172 ? saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 unto you , O priests H3548 , that despise H959 my name H8034 . And ye say H559 , Wherein H4100 have we despised H959 thy name H8034 ?
7 Ye offer H5066 polluted H1351 bread H3899 NMS upon H5921 PREP mine altar H4196 ; and ye say H559 , Wherein H4100 have we polluted H1351 thee ? In that ye say H559 , The table H7979 of the LORD H3068 EDS is contemptible H959 .
8 And if H3588 ye offer H5066 the blind H5787 for sacrifice H2076 , is it not H369 NPAR evil H7451 AMS ? and if H3588 W-CONJ ye offer H5066 the lame H6455 and sick H2470 , is it not H369 NPAR evil H7451 AMS ? offer H7126 it now H4994 IJEC unto thy governor H6346 ; will he be pleased H7521 with thee , or H176 CONJ accept H5375 thy person H6440 CMP-2MS ? saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 .
9 And now H6258 W-ADV , I pray you H4994 IJEC , beseech H2470 God H410 EDS that he will be gracious H2603 unto us : this H2063 DPRO-3FS hath been H1961 VQQ3FS by your means H3027 : will he regard H5375 your H4480 M-PPRO-2MS persons H6440 CMP ? saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 .
10 Who H4310 IPRO is there even H1571 CONJ among you that would shut H5462 the doors H1817 for naught ? neither H3808 ADV do ye kindle H215 fire on mine altar H4196 for naught H2600 ADV . I have no H369 ADV pleasure H2656 in you , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , neither H3808 ADV will I accept H7521 an offering H4503 at your hand H3027 .
11 For H3588 CONJ from the rising H4217 of the sun H8121 even unto H5704 W-PREP the going down H3996 of the same my name H8034 shall be great H1419 AMS among the Gentiles H1471 ; and in every H3605 WB-CMS place H4725 NUM-MS incense H6999 shall be offered H5066 unto my name H8034 , and a pure H2889 offering H4503 : for H3588 CONJ my name H8034 shall be great H1419 AMS among the heathen H1471 , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 .
12 But ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP have profaned H2490 it , in that ye say H559 , The table H7979 of the LORD H136 EDS is polluted H1351 ; and the fruit H5108 thereof , even his meat H400 , is contemptible H959 .
13 Ye said H559 also , Behold H2009 IJEC , what a weariness H4972 is it ! and ye have snuffed at H5301 it , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 ; and ye brought H935 that which was torn H1497 , and the lame H6455 , and the sick H2470 ; thus ye brought H935 an offering H4503 : should I accept H7521 this of your hand H3027 ? saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
14 But cursed H779 be the deceiver H5230 , which hath H3426 in his flock H5739 a male H2145 NMS , and voweth H5087 , and sacrificeth H2076 unto the Lord H136 a corrupt thing H7843 : for H3588 CONJ I H589 PPRO-1MS am a great H1419 AMS King H4428 NMS , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , and my name H8034 is dreadful H3372 VNCMS among the heathen H1471 .
