Malachi 1:1 (MKJV) Modern King James Version

1 The burden of the Word of Jehovah to Israel by Malachi.
2 I have loved you, says Jehovah. But you say, In what have You loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says Jehovah; yet I loved Jacob,
3 and I hated Esau and made his mountains a desolation, and his inheritance to be for the jackals of the wilderness.
4 If Edom says, We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places. So says Jehovah of Hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them the region of wickedness, and the people with whom Jehovah is indignant forever.
5 And your eyes shall see, and you shall say, Jehovah will be magnified beyond the border of Israel.
6 A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is My fear? says Jehovah of Hosts to you, O priests who despise My name. And you say, In what way have we despised Your name?
7 You offer defiled bread upon My altar; and you say, In what way have we defiled You? In your saying, The table of Jehovah, it is a thing to be despised.
8 And if you offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And if you offer the lame and the sick, is it not evil? Bring it now to your governor. Will he accept you, or lift up your face, says Jehovah of Hosts?
9 And now entreat the face of God, that He favor us. This has been by your hands, will He lift up your faces, says Jehovah of Hosts?
10 Who is even among you who will shut the doors, and you not kindle fire on My altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you, says Jehovah of Hosts. I will not be pleased with an offering from you.
11 For from the rising of the sun even to its going in, My name shall be great among the nations; and everywhere incense shall be offered to My name, and a pure food offering. For My name shall be great among the nations, says Jehovah of Hosts.
12 But you are profaning it when you say, The table of Jehovah, it is polluted; and its fruit, His food, is to be despised.
13 You also said, Behold, what a weariness it is! And you have puffed at it, says Jehovah of Hosts. And you bring plunder, and the lame, and the sick, and you bring the food offering. Should I accept it from your hand, says Jehovah?
14 But cursed be a deceiver; and there is in his flock a male, yet he vows it, but sacrifices to Jehovah a blemished one. For I am a great king, says Jehovah of Hosts, and My name is feared among the nations.

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 .

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 .
