Malachi 1:7-9

Names of God Bible

⁷ “You offer contaminated food on my altar.

“But you ask, ‘Then how have we contaminated you?’

“When you say that Yahweh’s table may be despised. ⁸ When you bring a blind animal to sacrifice, isn’t that wrong? When you bring a lame or a sick animal, isn’t that wrong? Try offering it to your governor. Would he accept it from you? Would he welcome you?” asks Yahweh Tsebaoth.

⁹ “Now try asking El to be kind to you. This is what you are doing! Will he welcome you?” asks Yahweh Tsebaoth.
