Malachi 1

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of the word <1697 dabar > of the

LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > to Israel <3478 Yisra>el > by Malachi <4401

Mal<akiy

2 I have loved <0157 >ahab > you, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >. Yet ye say <0559 >amar >, Wherein <4100 mah >

hast

thou loved <0157 >ahab > us? [Was] not Esau <6215 <Esav > Jacob's

<3290 Ya<aqob > brother <0251 >ach >? saith <0559 >amar > the

LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >: yet I loved <0157 >ahab > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >,

3 And I hated <8130 sane> > Esau <6215 <Esav >, and laid <7760

suwm

> his mountains <2022 har > and his heritage <5159 nachalah >

waste

<8077 sh@mamah > for the dragons <8568 tannah > of the wilderness

<4057 midbar >.

4 Whereas <3588 kiy > Edom <0123 >Edom > saith <0559 >amar >, We

are impoverished <7567 rashash >, but we will return <7725 shuwb

and build <1129 banah > the desolate <2723 chorbah > places; thus

<3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> >, They shall build <1129 banah >, but I will throw

<2040 harac > down <2040 harac >; and they shall call <7121

qara> >

them, The border <1366 g@buwl > of wickedness <7564 rish<ah >,

and,

The people <5971 <am > against whom <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath indignation <2194 za<am > for ever <5769 <owlam >.

5 And your eyes <5869 <ayin > shall see <7200 ra>ah >, and ye

shall

say <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will be magnified

<1431

gadal > from the border <1366 g@buwl > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el

6. A son <1121 ben > honoureth <3513 kabad > [his] father <2>,

and

a servant <5650 <ebed > his master <0113 >adown >: if <0518 >im >

then I [be] a father <2>, where <0346 >ayeh > [is] mine honour

<3519

kabowd >? and if <0518 >im > I [be] a master <0113 >adown >,

where

<0346 >ayeh > [is] my fear <4172 mowra> >? saith <0559 >amar >

the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > unto you, O priests

<3548 kohen >, that despise <0959 bazah > my name <8034 shem >.

And

ye say <0559 >amar >, Wherein <4100 mah > have we despised <0959

bazah > thy name <8034 shem >?

7 Ye offer <5066 nagash > polluted <1351 ga>al > bread <3899

lechem

> upon mine altar <4196 mizbeach >; and ye say <0559 >amar >,

Wherein <4100 mah > have we polluted <1351 ga>al > thee? In that

say <0559 >amar >, The table <7979 shulchan > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > [is] contemptible <0959 bazah >.

8 And if <3588 kiy > ye offer <5066 nagash > the blind <5787

<ivver

> for sacrifice <2076 zabach >, [is it] not evil <7451 ra< >?

and if

<3588 kiy > ye offer <5066 nagash > the lame <6455 picceach > and

sick <2470 chalah >, [is it] not evil <7451 ra< >? offer <7126

qarab

> it now <4994 na> > unto thy governor <6346 pechah >; will he be

pleased <7521 ratsah > with thee, or <0176 >ow > accept <5375

nasa>

> thy person <6440 paniym >? saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

9 And now <6258 <attah >, I pray <4994 na> > you, beseech God

<0410

>el > that he will be gracious <2603 chanan > unto us: this <2063

zo>th > hath been <1961 hayah > by your means <3027 yad >: will

regard <5375 nasa> > your persons <6440 paniym >? saith <0559

>amar

> the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

10 Who <4310 miy > [is there] even <1571 gam > among you that

would

shut <5462 cagar > the doors <1817 deleth > [for nought]? neither

<3808 lo> > do ye kindle <0215 >owr > [fire] on mine altar <4196

mizbeach > for nought <2600 chinnam >. I have no <0639 >aph >

pleasure <2656 chephets > in you, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD

<3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, neither <3808 lo> > will I

accept

<7521 ratsah > an offering <4503 minchah > at your hand <3027

yad >.

11 For from the rising <4217 mizrach > of the sun <8121 shemesh

even unto the going <3996 mabow> > down of the same my name <8034

shem > [shall be] great <1419 gadowl > among the Gentiles <1471

gowy

>; and in every <3605 kol > place <4725 maqowm > incense <6999

qatar

> [shall be] offered <5066 nagash > unto my name <8034 shem >,

and a

pure <2889 tahowr > offering <4503 minchah >: for my name <8034

shem

> [shall be] great <1419 gadowl > among the heathen <1471 gowy >,

saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635

tsaba>

12 But ye have profaned <2490 chalal > it, in that ye say <0559

>amar >, The table <7979 shulchan > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

[is]

polluted <1351 ga>al >; and the fruit <5108 nowb > thereof,

[even]

his meat <0400 >okel >, [is] contemptible <0959 bazah >.

13 Ye said <0559 >amar > also, Behold <2009 hinneh >, what a

weariness <4972 matt@la>ah > [is it]! and ye have snuffed <5301

naphach > at it, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> >; and ye brought <0935 bow> > [that which

was]

torn <1497 gazal >, and the lame <6455 picceach >, and the sick

<2470 chalah >; thus <3541 koh > ye brought <0935 bow> > an

offering

<4503 minchah >: should I accept <7521 ratsah > this of your hand

<3027 yad >? saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

14 But cursed <0779 >arar > [be] the deceiver <5230 nakal >,

which

<3426 yesh > hath in his flock <5739 <eder > a male <2145 zakar

and voweth <5087 nadar >, and sacrificeth <2076 zabach > unto the

Lord <0136 >Adonay > a corrupt <7843 shachath > thing: for I

[am] a

great <1419 gadowl > King <4428 melek >, saith <0559 >amar > the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, and my name <8034

shem

> [is] dreadful <3372 yare> > among the heathen <1471 gowy >.

Malachi 2

1. And now <6258 <attah >, O ye priests <3548 kohen >, this

<2063

zo>th > commandment <4687 mitsvah > [is] for you.

2 If <0518 >im > ye will not hear <8085 shama< >, and if <0518

>im

> ye will not lay <7760 suwm > [it] to heart <3820 leb >, to give

<5414 nathan > glory <3519 kabowd > unto my name <8034 shem >,

saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, I

will even send <7971 shalach > a curse <3994 m@erah > upon you,

and

I will curse <0779 >arar > your blessings <1293 B@rakah >: yea

<1571

gam >, I have cursed <0779 >arar > them already, because <3588

kiy >

ye do not lay <7760 suwm > [it] to heart <3820 leb >.

3 Behold <2005 hen >, I will corrupt <1605 ga<ar > your seed

<2233

zera< >, and spread <2219 zarah > dung <6569 peresh > upon your

faces <6440 paniym >, [even] the dung <6569 peresh > of your

solemn

<2282 chag > feasts <2282 chag >; and [one] shall take <5375

nasa> >

you away with it.

4 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I have sent <7971

shalach >

this <2063 zo>th > commandment <4687 mitsvah > unto you, that my

covenant <1285 b@riyth > might be with Levi <3878 Leviy >, saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

5 My covenant <1285 b@riyth > was with him of life <2416 chay >

and

peace <7965 shalowm >; and I gave <5414 nathan > them to him

[for]

the fear <4172 mowra> > wherewith he feared <3372 yare> > me, and

was afraid <2865 chathath > before <6440 paniym > my name <8034

shem

6 The law <8451 towrah > of truth <0571 >emeth > was in his

mouth

<6310 peh >, and iniquity <5766 <evel > was not found <4672

matsa> >

in his lips <8193 saphah >: he walked <1980 halak > with me in

peace

<7965 shalowm > and equity <4334 miyshowr >, and did turn <7725

shuwb > many <7227 rab > away from iniquity <5771 <avon >.

7 For the priest's <3548 kohen > lips <8193 saphah > should keep

<2287 chagag > knowledge <1847 da<ath >, and they should seek

<1245

baqash > the law <8451 towrah > at his mouth <6310 peh >: for he

[is] the messenger <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

8 But ye are departed <5493 cuwr > out of the way <1870 derek >;

have caused many <7227 rab > to stumble <3782 kashal > at the law

<8451 towrah >; ye have corrupted <7843 shachath > the covenant

<1285 b@riyth > of Levi <3878 Leviy >, saith <0559 >amar > the

LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

9 Therefore have I also <1571 gam > made <5414 nathan > you

contemptible <0959 bazah > and base <8217 shaphal > before all

<3605

kol > the people <5971 <am >, according <6310 peh > as ye have

not

kept <8104 shamar > my ways <1870 derek >, but have been partial

the law <8451 towrah >.

10. Have we not all <3605 kol > one <0259 >echad > father <2>?

hath

not one <0259 >echad > God <0410 >el > created <1254 bara> > us?

why

<4069 madduwa< > do we deal treacherously <0898 bagad > every man

<0376 >iysh > against his brother <0251 >ach >, by profaning

<2490

chalal > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > of our fathers <1>?

11 Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > hath dealt treacherously <0898 bagad

and an abomination <8441 tow<ebah > is committed <6213 <asah > in

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >;

for

Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > hath profaned <2490 chalal > the holiness

<6944 qodesh > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > which <0834 >aher > he

loved <0157 >ahab >, and hath married <1166 ba<al > the daughter

<1323 bath > of a strange <5236 nekar > god <0410 >el >.

12 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will cut <3772 karath > off the man

<0376 >iysh > that doeth <6213 <asah > this, the master <5782

<uwr >

and the scholar <6030 <anah >, out of the tabernacles <0168

>ohel >

of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and him that offereth <5066 nagash > an

offering <4503 minchah > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> >.

13 And this have ye done <6213 <asah > again <8145 sheniy >,

covering <3680 kacah > the altar <4196 mizbeach > of the LORD

<3068

Y@hovah > with tears <1832 dim<ah >, with weeping <1065 B@kiy >,

and

with crying <0603 >anaqah > out, insomuch that he regardeth <6437

panah > not the offering <4503 minchah > any more <5750 <owd >,

receiveth <3947 laqach > [it] with good <7522 ratsown > will

<7522

ratsown > at your hand <3027 yad >.

14 Yet ye say <0559 >amar >, Wherefore <4100 mah >? Because the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath been witness <5749 <uwd > between <0996

beyn > thee and the wife <0802 >ishshah > of thy youth <5271

na<uwr

>, against whom <0834 >aher > thou hast dealt treacherously <0898

bagad >: yet [is] she thy companion <2278 chabereth >, and the

wife

<0802 >ishshah > of thy covenant <1285 b@riyth >.

15 And did <6213 <asah > not he make <6213 <asah > one <0259

>echad

>? Yet had he the residue <7605 sh@>ar > of the spirit <7307

ruwach

>. And wherefore <4100 mah > one <0259 >echad >? That he might

seek

<1245 baqash > a godly <0430 >elohiym > seed <2233 zera< >.

Therefore take heed <8104 shamar > to your spirit <7307 ruwach >,

and let none <0408 >al > deal treacherously <0898 bagad > against

the wife <0802 >ishshah > of his youth <5271 na<uwr >.

16 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, the God <0430 >elohiym > of

Israel

<3478 Yisra>el >, saith <0559 >amar > that he hateth <8130 sane>

putting <7971 shalach > away: for [one] covereth <3680 kacah >

violence <2555 chamac > with his garment <3830 l@buwsh >, saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >:

therefore take heed <8104 shamar > to your spirit <7307 ruwach >,

that ye deal not treacherously <0898 bagad >.

17 Ye have wearied <3021 yaga< > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > with

your

words <1697 dabar >. Yet ye say <0559 >amar >, Wherein <4100 mah

have we wearied <3021 yaga< > [him]? When ye say <0559 >amar >,

Every <3605 kol > one that doeth <6213 <asah > evil <7451 ra< >

[is]

good <2896 towb > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, and he delighteth <2654 chaphets > in them; or <0176

>ow

>, Where <0346 >ayeh > [is] the God <0430 >elohiym > of judgment

<4941 mishpat >?

Malachi 3

1. Behold <2005 hen >, I will send <7971 shalach > my messenger

<4397 mal>ak >, and he shall prepare <6437 panah > the way <1870

derek > before <6440 paniym > me: and the Lord <0113 >adown >,

whom

<0834 >aher > ye seek <1245 baqash >, shall suddenly <6597

pith>owm

> come <0935 bow> > to his temple <1964 heykal >, even the

messenger

<4397 mal>ak > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth >, whom <0834 >aher

ye delight <2655 chaphets > in: behold <2009 hinneh >, he shall

come

<0935 bow> >, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts

<6635 tsaba> >.

2 But who <4310 miy > may abide <3557 kuwl > the day <3117 yowm

of his coming <0935 bow> >? and who <4310 miy > shall stand <5975

<amad > when he appeareth <7200 ra>ah >? for he [is] like a

refiner's <6884 tsaraph > fire <0784 >esh >, and like fullers

<3526

kabac >' soap <1287 boriyth >:

3 And he shall sit <3427 yashab > [as] a refiner <6884 tsaraph >

and purifier <2891 taher > of silver <3701 keceph >: and he shall

purify <2891 taher > the sons <1121 ben > of Levi <3878 Leviy >,

and

purge <2212 zaqaq > them as gold <2091 zahab > and silver <3701

keceph >, that they may offer <5066 nagash > unto the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > an offering <4503 minchah > in righteousness <6666

ts@daqah >.

4 Then shall the offering <4503 minchah > of Judah <3063

Y@huwdah >

and Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > be pleasant <6148 <arab > unto

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, as in the days <3117 yowm > of old

<5769

<owlam >, and as in former <6931 qadmowniy > years <8141 shaneh

5 And I will come <7126 qarab > near <7126 qarab > to you to

judgment <4941 mishpat >; and I will be a swift <4116 mahar >

witness <5707 <ed > against the sorcerers <3784 kashaph >, and

against the adulterers <5003 na>aph >, and against false <8267

sheqer > swearers <7650 shaba< >, and against those that oppress

<6231 <ashaq > the hireling <7916 sakiyr > in [his] wages <7939

sakar >, the widow <0490 >almanah >, and the fatherless <3490

yathowm >, and that turn <5186 natah > aside <5186 natah > the

stranger <1616 ger > [from his right <3225 yamiyn >], and fear

<3372

yare> > not me, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

6 For I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, I change <8138 shanah >

not;

therefore ye sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > are not

consumed <3615 kalah >.

7. Even from the days <3117 yowm > of your fathers <1> ye are

gone

<5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > from mine ordinances <2706 choq >,

and have not kept <8104 shamar > [them]. Return <7725 shuwb >

unto

me, and I will return <7725 shuwb > unto you, saith <0559 >amar >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >. But ye said

<0559

>amar >, Wherein <4100 mah > shall we return <7725 shuwb >?

8 Will a man <0120 >adam > rob <6906 qaba< > God <0430 >elohiym

Yet ye have robbed <6906 qaba< > me. But ye say <0559 >amar >,

Wherein <4100 mah > have we robbed <0962 bazaz > thee? In tithes

<4643 ma<aser > and offerings <8641 t@ruwmah >.

9 Ye [are] cursed <0779 >arar > with a curse <3994 m@erah >:

for ye

have robbed <6906 qaba< > me, [even] this whole <3605 kol >

nation

<1471 gowy >.

10 Bring <0935 bow> > ye all <3605 kol > the tithes <4643

ma<aser >

into <0413 >el > the storehouse <0214 >owtsar >, that there may

meat <2964 tereph > in mine house <1004 bayith >, and prove <0974

bachan > me now <4994 na> > herewith <2063 zo>th >, saith <0559

>amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, if I

will

not open <6605 pathach > you the windows <0699 >arubbah > of

heaven

<8064 shamayim >, and pour <7324 ruwq > you out a blessing <1293

B@rakah >, that [there shall] not [be room] enough <1767 day >

[to

receive it].

11 And I will rebuke <1605 ga<ar > the devourer <0398 >akal >

for

your sakes, and he shall not destroy <7843 shachath > the fruits

<6529 p@riy > of your ground <0127 >adamah >; neither <3808 lo> >

shall your vine <1612 gephen > cast <7921 shakol > her fruit

<7920

s@kal > before the time in the field <7704 sadeh >, saith <0559

>amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

12 And all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy > shall call <0833

>ashar

> you blessed <0833 >ashar >: for ye shall be a delightsome <2656

chephets > land <0776 >erets >, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD

<3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

13. Your words <1697 dabar > have been stout <2388 chazaq >

against

<5921 <al > me, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

Yet ye

say <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > have we spoken <1696 dabar >

[so

much] against <5921 <al > thee?

14 Ye have said <0559 >amar >, It [is] vain <7723 shav> > to

serve

<5647 <abad > God <0430 >elohiym >: and what <4100 mah > profit

<1215 betsa< > [is it] that we have kept <8104 shamar > his

ordinance <4931 mishmereth >, and that we have walked <1980

halak >

mournfully <6941 q@doranniyth > before <6440 paniym > the LORD

<3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >?

15 And now <6258 <attah > we call <0833 >ashar > the proud <2086

zed > happy <0833 >ashar >; yea <1571 gam >, they that work <6213

<asah > wickedness <7564 rish<ah > are set <1129 banah > up; yea

<1571 gam >, [they that] tempt <0974 bachan > God <0430 >elohiym

are even delivered <4422 malat >.

16 Then they that feared <3372 yare> > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

spake <1696 dabar > often one <0376 >iysh > to another <7453

rea< >:

and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hearkened <7181 qashab >, and heard

<8085 shama< > [it], and a book <5612 cepher > of remembrance

<2146
