And you say, How have we despised your name? 7 You offer defiled bread upon my altar; and you say, How have we polluted you? In that you say, The table of the LORD is contemptible. 8 And if you offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if you offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? Offer it now to your governor; will he be pleased with you, or accept you? says the LORD of hosts. 9 And now, I pray you, plead with God that he will be gracious to us: this has been by your means: will he regard you? says the LORD of hosts. 10 Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nothing? Neither do you kindle fire on my altar for nothing. I have no pleasure in you, says the LORD of hosts, nor will I accept an offering from your hand. 11 For from the rising of the sun even to its going down my name shall be great among the nations; and in every place incense shall be offered to my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, says the LORD of hosts. 12 But you have profaned it, in that you say, The table of the LORD is defiled; and its produce, even its food, is contemptible. 13 You said also, Behold, what a weariness it is! and you have sneered at it, says the LORD of hosts; and you brought what was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus you brought an offering: should I accept this from your hand? says the LORD. 14 But cursed be the deceiver, who has in his flock a male, and vows, and sacrifices to the Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, says the LORD of hosts, and my name is feared among the heathen.
