Malachi 1:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 From the rising of the sun to its setting, my name is great among the nations, and in every place incense is being presented to my name, and a pure offering. For my name is great among the nations,” says Yahweh of hosts. 12 “But you are profaning it by saying the table of the Lord is defiled, and its fruit—its food[a]—is despised! 13 And you say, ‘Look! This is a weariness,’ and you sniff with disdain at it,” says Yahweh of hosts. “And you bring the stolen, the lame, and the one that is sick—this you bring as the offering! Should I accept it[b] from your hand?” says Yahweh.

12 “But you profane it by saying, ‘The Lord’s table(F) is defiled,’ and, ‘Its food(G) is contemptible.’ 13 And you say, ‘What a burden!’(H) and you sniff at it contemptuously,(I)” says the Lord Almighty.
“When you bring injured, lame or diseased animals and offer them as sacrifices,(J) should I accept them from your hands?”(K) says the Lord.
