Malachi 1:13-14
New American Standard Bible
13 You also say, ‘See, [a]how (A)tiresome it is!’ And you view it as trivial,” says the Lord of armies, “and you bring what was taken by (B)robbery and what is (C)lame or sick; so you bring the offering! Should I (D)accept it from your hand?” says the Lord. 14 “But cursed be the (E)swindler who has a male in his flock and vows it, but sacrifices a (F)blemished animal to the Lord, for I am a great (G)King,” says the Lord of armies, “and My name is [b](H)feared among the [c]nations.”
