Mal Malachi, chapter Book of Malachi, chapter 1

The burden of a word of YHWH to Israel by the hand of Malachi: “I have loved yöu, said YHWH, || And yöu have said, || In what have You loved us? Rom 9:13Is not Esau Jacob’s brother?” A declaration of YHWH, || “And I love Jacob, and Esau I have hated, || And I make his mountains a desolation, || And his inheritance for dragons of a wilderness. Isa 13:22; Jer 9:11; Ezk 35:9Because Edom says, We have been made poor, || And we return and we build the ruins, || Thus said YHWH of Hosts: They build, and I destroy, || And [men] have called to them, || O region of wickedness, || O people whom YHWH defied for all time. Isa 9:10; Jer 45:4And yöur eyes see, and yöu say, || YHWH is magnified beyond the border of Israel, A son honors a father, and a servant his master. And if I [am] a father, where [is] My glory? And if I [am] a master, where [is] My fear? Said YHWH of Hosts to yöu, || O priests, despising My Name! And yöu have said, In what have we despised Your Name? Exo 20:12; Mat 15:4Yöu are bringing defiled bread near on My altar, || And yöu have said, In what have we defiled You? In yöur saying, The table of YHWH—it [is] despicable, Isa 58:2And when yöu bring the blind near for sacrifice, [saying], || There is no evil, || And when yöu bring the lame and sick near, [saying], || There is no evil; Now bring it near to your governor—Does he accept you? Or does he lift up your face?” said YHWH of Hosts. Exo 12:5; Exo 29:38; Lev 22:20; Deu 15:21“And now, please appease the face of God, || And He favors us; This has been from yöur own hand, || Does He accept yöur faces?” said YHWH of Hosts. 2Ch 19:7“Who [is] even among yöu, || And he shuts the double doors? Indeed, yöu do not kindle My altar for nothing, || I have no pleasure in yöu,” said YHWH of Hosts, || “And I do not accept a present of yöur hand. Isa 1:11; Jer 6:20; Amo 5:21For from the rising of the sun to its going in, || Great [is] My Name among nations, || And in every place incense is brought near for My Name, and a pure present, || For great [is] My Name among nations,” said YHWH of Hosts. Psa 113:3“And yöu are defiling it in yöur saying, || The table of YHWH—it is defiled, || As for its fruit—its food is despicable. And yöu have said, Behold, what a weariness, || And yöu have puffed at it,” said YHWH of Hosts, || “And yöu have brought in plunder, || And the lame and the sick, || And yöu have brought in the present! Do I accept it from yöur hand?” said YHWH. “And a deceiver [is] cursed, who has in his drove a male, || And is vowing, and is sacrificing a marred thing to the Lord, || For I [am] a great King,” said YHWH of Hosts, || “And My Name [is] revered among nations!”Psa 47:2
