Malachi 1:13-14

Contemporary English Version

¹³ You get so disgusted that you even make vulgar signs at me.^[a] And for an offering, you bring stolen^[b] animals or those that are lame or sick. Should I accept these? ¹⁴ Instead of offering the acceptable animals you have promised, you bring me those that are unhealthy. I will punish you for this, because I am the great King, the Lord All-Powerful, and I am worshiped by nations everywhere.
