Mal 01:01 ¶ The burden <04853> of the word <01697> of the LORD

<03068> to Israel <03478> by <03027> Malachi <04401>.


Mal 01:02  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>,


Mal 01:03  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>.


Mal 01:04  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>.


Mal 01:05  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>.


Mal 01:06 ¶ 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>?


Mal 01:07  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).


Mal 01:08  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>.


Mal 01:09  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>.


Mal 01:10  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>.


Mal 01:11  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>.


Mal 01:12  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).


Mal 01:13  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>.


Mal 01:14  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>.


Mal 02:01 ¶ And now, O ye priests <03548>, this commandment

<04687> is for you.


Mal 02:02  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>.


Mal 02:03  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.


Mal 02:04  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>.


Mal 02:05  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>.


Mal 02:06  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> <00> many

<07227> away <07725> (8689) from iniquity <05771>.


Mal 02:07  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>.


Mal 02:08  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>.


Mal 02:09  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>.


Mal 02:10 ¶ Have we not all one <0259> father <01>? hath not one

<0259> God <0410> created <01254> (8804) us? why do we deal

treacherously <0898> (8799) every man <0376> against his brother

<0251>, by profaning <02490> (8763) the covenant <01285> of our

fathers <01>?


Mal 02:11  Judah <03063> hath dealt treacherously <0898> (8804),

and an abomination <08441> is committed <06213> (8738) in Israel

<03478> and in Jerusalem <03389>; for Judah <03063> hath

profaned <02490> (8765) the holiness <06944> of the LORD <03068>

which he loved <0157> (8804), and hath married <01166> (8804)

the daughter <01323> of a strange <05236> god <0410>.


Mal 02:12  The LORD <03068> will cut off <03772> (8686) the man

<0376> that doeth <06213> (8799) this, the master <05782> (8802)

and the scholar <06030> (8802), out of the tabernacles <0168> of

Jacob <03290>, and him that offereth <05066> (8688) an offering

<04503> unto the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.


Mal 02:13  And this have ye done <06213> (8799) again <08145>,

covering <03680> (8763) the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068>

with tears <01832>, with weeping <01065>, and with crying out

<0603>, insomuch that he regardeth <06437> (8800) not the

offering <04503> any more, or receiveth <03947> (8800) it with

good will <07522> at your hand <03027>.


Mal 02:14  Yet ye say <0559> (8804), Wherefore <04100>? Because

the LORD <03068> hath been witness <05749> (8689) between thee

and the wife <0802> of thy youth <05271>, against whom thou hast

dealt treacherously <0898> (8804): yet is she thy companion

<02278>, and the wife <0802> of thy covenant <01285>.


Mal 02:15  And did not he make <06213> (8804) one <0259>? Yet

had he the residue <07605> of the spirit <07307>. And wherefore

one <0259>? That he might seek <01245> (8764) a godly <0430>

seed <02233>. Therefore take heed <08104> (8738) to your spirit

<07307>, and let none deal treacherously <0898> (8799) against

the wife <0802> of his youth <05271>.


Mal 02:16  For the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of Israel

<03478>, saith <0559> (8804) that he hateth <08130> (8804)

putting away <07971> (8763): for one covereth <03680> (8765)

violence <02555> with his garment <03830>, saith <0559> (8804)

the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>: therefore take heed <08104>

(8738) to your spirit <07307>, that ye deal not treacherously

<0898> (8799).


Mal 02:17  Ye have wearied <03021> (8689) the LORD <03068> with

your words <01697>. Yet ye say <0559> (8804), Wherein have we

wearied <03021> (8689) him? When ye say <0559> (8800), Every one

that doeth <06213> (8802) evil <07451> is good <02896> in the

sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and he delighteth <02654>

(8804) in them; or, Where is the God <0430> of judgment <04941>?


Mal 03:01 ¶ Behold, I will send <07971> (8802) my messenger

<04397>, and he shall prepare <06437> (8765) the way <01870>

before <06440> me: and the Lord <0113>, whom ye seek <01245>

(8764), shall suddenly <06597> come <0935> (8799) to his temple

<01964>, even the messenger <04397> of the covenant <01285>,

whom ye delight <02655> in: behold, he shall come <0935> (8804),

saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.


Mal 03:02  But who may abide <03557> (8772) the day <03117> of

his coming <0935> (8800)? and who shall stand <05975> (8802)

when he appeareth <07200> (8736)? for he is like a refiner’s

<06884> (8764) fire <0784>, and like fullers <03526> (8764)‘

soap <01287>:


Mal 03:03  And he shall sit <03427> (8804) as a refiner <06884>

(8764) and purifier <02891> (8764) of silver <03701>: and he

shall purify <02891> (8765) the sons <01121> of Levi <03878>,

and purge <02212> (8765) them as gold <02091> and silver <03701>,

 that they may offer <05066> (8688) unto the LORD <03068> an

offering <04503> in righteousness <06666>.


Mal 03:04  Then shall the offering <04503> of Judah <03063> and

Jerusalem <03389> be pleasant <06149> (8804) unto the LORD

<03068>, as in the days <03117> of old <05769>, and as in former

<06931> years <08141>.


Mal 03:05  And I will come near <07126> (8804) to you to

judgment <04941>; and I will be a swift <04116> (8764) witness

<05707> against the sorcerers <03784> (8764), and against the

adulterers <05003> (8764), and against false <08267> swearers

<07650> (8737), and against those that oppress <06231> (8802)

the hireling <07916> in his wages <07939>, the widow <0490>, and

the fatherless <03490>, and that turn aside <05186> (8688) the

stranger <01616> from his right, and fear <03372> (8804) not me,

saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.


Mal 03:06  For I am the LORD <03068>, I change <08138> (8804)

not; therefore ye sons <01121> of Jacob <03290> are not consumed

<03615> (8804).


Mal 03:07 ¶ Even from the days <03117> of your fathers <01> ye

are gone away <05493> (8804) from mine ordinances <02706>, and

have not kept <08104> (8804) them. Return <07725> (8798) unto me,

 and I will return <07725> (8799) unto you, saith <0559> (8804)

the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. But ye said <0559> (8804),

Wherein shall we return <07725> (8799)?


Mal 03:08  Will a man <0120> rob <06906> (8799) God <0430>? Yet

ye have robbed <06906> (8802) me. But ye say <0559> (8804),

Wherein have we robbed <06906> (8804) thee? In tithes <04643>

and offerings <08641>.


Mal 03:09  Ye are cursed <0779> (8737) with a curse <03994>: for

ye have robbed <06906> (8802) me, even this whole nation <01471>.


Mal 03:10  Bring <0935> (8685) ye all the tithes <04643> into

the storehouse <0214>, that there may be meat <02964> in mine

house <01004>, and prove <0974> (8798) me now herewith <02063>,

saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, if I will

not open <06605> (8799) you the windows <0699> of heaven <08064>,

 and pour you out <07324> (8689) a blessing <01293>, that there

shall not be room enough <01767> to receive it.


Mal 03:11  And I will rebuke <01605> (8804) the devourer <0398>

(8802) for your sakes, and he shall not destroy <07843> (8686)

the fruits <06529> of your ground <0127>; neither shall your

vine <01612> cast her fruit <07921> (8762) before the time in

the field <07704>, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts

<06635>.


Mal 03:12  And all nations <01471> shall call you blessed <0833>

(8765): for ye shall be a delightsome <02656> land <0776>, saith

<0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.


Mal 03:13 ¶ Your words <01697> have been stout <02388> (8804)

against me, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>. Yet ye say

<0559> (8804), What have we spoken <01696> (8738) so much

against thee?


Mal 03:14  Ye have said <0559> (8804), It is vain <07723> to

serve <05647> (8800) God <0430>: and what profit <01215> is it

that we have kept <08104> (8804) his ordinance <04931>, and that

we have walked <01980> (8804) mournfully <06941> before <06440>

the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>?


Mal 03:15  And now we call <0833> <00> the proud <02086> happy

<0833> (8764); yea, they that work <06213> (8802) wickedness

<07564> are set up <01129> (8738); yea, they that tempt <0974>

(8804) God <0430> are even delivered <04422> (8735).


Mal 03:16  Then they that feared <03373> the LORD <03068> spake

often <01696> (8738) one <0376> to another <07453>: and the LORD

<03068> hearkened <07181> (8686), and heard <08085> (8799) it,

and a book <05612> of remembrance <02146> was written <03789>

(8735) before <06440> him for them that feared <03373> the LORD

<03068>, and that thought <02803> (8802) upon his name <08034>.


Mal 03:17  And they shall be mine, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD

<03068> of hosts <06635>, in that day <03117> when I make up

<06213> (8802) my jewels <05459>; and I will spare <02550>

(8804) them, as a man <0376> spareth <02550> (8799) his own son

<01121> that serveth <05647> (8802) him.


Mal 03:18  Then shall ye return <07725> (8804), and discern

<07200> (8804) between the righteous <06662> and the wicked

<07563>, between him that serveth <05647> (8802) God <0430> and

him that serveth <05647> (8804) him not.


Mal 04:01 ¶ For, behold, the day <03117> cometh <0935> (8802),

that shall burn <01197> (8802) as an oven <08574>; and all the

proud <02086>, yea, and all that do <06213> (8802) wickedly

<07564>, shall be stubble <07179>: and the day <03117> that

cometh <0935> (8802) shall burn them up <03857> (8765), saith

<0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, that it shall

leave <05800> (8799) them neither root <08328> nor branch

<06057>.


Mal 04:02  But unto you that fear <03373> my name <08034> shall

the Sun <08121> of righteousness <06666> arise <02224> (8804)

with healing <04832> in his wings <03671>; and ye shall go forth

<03318> (8804), and grow up <06335> (8804) as calves <05695> of

the stall <04770>.


Mal 04:03  And ye shall tread down <06072> (8804) the wicked

<07563>; for they shall be ashes <0665> under the soles <03709>

of your feet <07272> in the day <03117> that I shall do <06213>

(8802) this, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts

<06635>.


Mal 04:04 ¶ Remember <02142> (8798) ye the law <08451> of Moses

<04872> my servant <05650>, which I commanded <06680> (8765)

unto him in Horeb <02722> for all Israel <03478>, with the

statutes <02706> and judgments <04941>.


Mal 04:05  Behold, I will send <07971> (8802) you Elijah <0452>

the prophet <05030> before <06440> the coming <0935> (8800) of

the great <01419> and dreadful <03372> (8737) day <03117> of the

LORD <03068>:


Mal 04:06  And he shall turn <07725> (8689) the heart <03820> of

the fathers <01> to the children <01121>, and the heart <03820>

of the children <01121> to their fathers <01>, lest I come

<0935> (8799) and smite <05221> (8689) the earth <0776> with a

curse <02764>.
