Malachi 1:6--2:9

1:6

A son
<01121>

honoureth
<03513> (8762)

[his] father
<01>_,

and a servant
<05650>

his master
<0113>_:

if then I [be] a father
<01>_,

where [is] mine honour
<03519>_?

and if I [be] a master
<0113>_,

where [is] my fear
<04172>_?

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

unto you, O priests
<03548>_,

that despise
<0959> (8802)

my name
<08034>_.

And ye say
<0559> (8804)_,

Wherein have we despised
<0959> (8804)

thy name
<08034>_?

1:7

Ye offer
<05066> (8688)

polluted
<01351> (8794)

bread
<03899>

upon mine altar
<04196>_;

and ye say
<0559> (8804)_,

Wherein have we polluted
<01351> (8765)

thee? In that ye say
<0559> (8800)_,

The table
<07979>

of the LORD
<03068>

[is] contemptible
<0959> (8737)_.

{offer...: or, bring unto, etc}

1:8

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}

1:9

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}

1:10

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>_.

1:11

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>_.

1:12

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)_.

1:13

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}

1:14

But cursed
<0779> (8803)

[be] the deceiver
<05230> (8802)_,

which
<03426>

hath in his flock
<05739>

a male
<02145>_,

and voweth
<05087> (8802)_,

and sacrificeth
<02076> (8802)

unto the Lord
<0136>

a corrupt thing
<07843> (8716)_:

for I [am] a great
<01419>

King
<04428>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

and my name
<08034>

[is] dreadful
<03372> (8737)

among the heathen
<01471>_.

{which...: Heb. in whose flock is}

2:1

And now, O ye priests
<03548>_,

this commandment
<04687>

[is] for you.

2:2

If ye will not hear
<08085> (8799)_,

and if ye will not lay
<07760> (8799)

[it] to heart
<03820>_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

glory
<03519>

unto my name
<08034>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

I will even send
<07971> (8765)

a curse
<03994>

upon you, and I will curse
<0779> (8804)

your blessings
<01293>_:

yea, I have cursed
<0779> (8804)

them already, because ye do not lay
<07760> (8802)

[it] to heart
<03820>_.

2:3

Behold, I will corrupt
<01605> (8802)

your seed
<02233>_,

and spread
<02219> (8765)

dung
<06569>

upon your faces
<06440>_,

[even] the dung
<06569>

of your solemn feasts
<02282>_;

and [one] shall take you away
<05375> (8804)

with it. {corrupt: or, reprove} {spread: Heb. scatter} {one...: or, it shall take you away to it}

2:4

And ye shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I have sent
<07971> (8765)

this commandment
<04687>

unto you, that my covenant
<01285>

might be with Levi
<03878>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

2:5

My covenant
<01285>

was with him of life
<02416>

and peace
<07965>_;

and I gave
<05414> (8799)

them to him [for] the fear
<04172>

wherewith he feared
<03372> (8799)

me, and was afraid
<02865> (8738)

before
<06440>

my name
<08034>_.

2:6

The law
<08451>

of truth
<0571>

was in his mouth
<06310>_,

and iniquity
<05766>

was not found
<04672> (8738)

in his lips
<08193>_:

he walked
<01980> (8804)

with me in peace
<07965>

and equity
<04334>_,

and did turn
<07725> (0)

many
<07227>

away
<07725> (8689)

from iniquity
<05771>_.

2:7

For the priest's
<03548>

lips
<08193>

should keep
<08104> (8799)

knowledge
<01847>_,

and they should seek
<01245> (8762)

the law
<08451>

at his mouth
<06310>_:

for he [is] the messenger
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

2:8

But ye are departed
<05493> (8804)

out of the way
<01870>_;

ye have caused many
<07227>

to stumble
<03782> (8689)

at the law
<08451>_;

ye have corrupted
<07843> (8765)

the covenant
<01285>

of Levi
<03878>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

{stumble at: or, fall in}

2:9

Therefore have I also made
<05414> (8804)

you contemptible
<0959> (8737)

and base
<08217>

before all the people
<05971>_,

according
<06310>

as ye have not kept
<08104> (8802)

my ways
<01870>_,

but have been partial
<05375> (8802) <06440>

in the law
<08451>_.

{have been...: or, lifted up the face against: Heb. accepted faces}
