Malachi 1:12-14

English Standard Version

¹² But you profane it when you say that ^(A)the Lord's table is polluted, and its fruit, that is, its food, may be despised. ¹³ But you say, ^(B)‘What a weariness this is,’ and you snort at it, says the Lord of hosts. ^(C)You bring what has been taken by violence or is lame or sick, and this you bring as your offering! Shall I accept that from your hand? says the Lord. ¹⁴ Cursed be the cheat who has ^(D)a male in his flock, and ^(E)vows it, and yet sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished. For ^(F)I am a great King, says the Lord of hosts, and my name ^(G)will be feared among the nations.
