this commandment
<04687>

[is] for you.

Malachi 1:1-14

1:1

The burden
<04853>

of the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

to Israel
<03478>

by
<03027>

Malachi
<04401>_.

{by...: Heb. by the hand of}

1:2

I have loved
<0157> (8804)

you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Yet ye say
<0559> (8804)_,

Wherein hast thou loved
<0157> (8804)

us? [Was] not Esau
<06215>

Jacob's
<03290>

brother
<0251>_?

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_:

yet I loved
<0157> (8799)

Jacob
<03290>_,

1:3

And I hated
<08130> (8804)

Esau
<06215>_,

and laid
<07760> (8799)

his mountains
<02022>

and his heritage
<05159>

waste
<08077>

for the dragons
<08568>

of the wilderness
<04057>_.

1:4

Whereas Edom
<0123>

saith
<0559> (8799)_,

We are impoverished
<07567> (8795)_,

but we will return
<07725> (8799)

and build
<01129> (8799)

the desolate places
<02723>_;

thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

They shall build
<01129> (8799)_,

but I will throw down
<02040> (8799)_;

and they shall call
<07121> (8804)

them, The border
<01366>

of wickedness
<07564>_,

and, The people
<05971>

against whom the LORD
<03068>

hath indignation
<02194> (8804)

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

1:5

And your eyes
<05869>

shall see
<07200> (8799)_,

and ye shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

The LORD
<03068>

will be magnified
<01431> (8799)

from the border
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{from: or, upon: Heb. from upon}

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}
