Book 39 The Word unto Malachi Malachi
Malachi|1:1 The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.
Malachi|1:2 I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us. [Was] not Esau Jacob's brother. saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob,
Malachi|1:3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
Malachi|1:4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.
Malachi|1:5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel.
Malachi|1:6 A son honoureth [his] father, and a servant his master: if then I [be] a father, where [is] mine honour. and if I [be] a master, where [is] my fear. saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name.
Malachi|1:7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee. In that ye say, The table of the LORD [is] contemptible.
Malachi|1:8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, [is it] not evil. and if ye offer the lame and sick, [is it] not evil. offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person. saith the LORD of hosts.
