jub@Malachi:3:1 @ Behold, I send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, and the angel of the covenant, whom ye desire: behold, he comes, said the LORD of the hosts.

jub@Malachi:3:2 @ But who may abide the time of his coming? and who shall stand when he appears? for he [shall be] like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap:

jub@Malachi:3:3 @ And he shall sit to refine and to purify the silver: for he shall purify the sons of Levi and purge them as gold and silver that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.

jub@Malachi:3:4 @ Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem shall be pleasant unto the LORD as in the days of old and as in former years.

jub@Malachi:3:5 @ And I will come near unto you for judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers and against the adulterers and against false swearers and against those that oppress the hireling in [his] wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger [from his right], and do not fear me, said the LORD of the hosts.

jub@Malachi:3:6 @ For I [am] the LORD, I have not changed; therefore, ye sons of Jacob have not been consumed.

jub@Malachi:3:7 @ Even from the days of your fathers, ye had departed from my ordinances and had never kept [them]. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, said the LORD of the hosts. But ye said, In what shall we return?

jub@Malachi:3:8 @ Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, In what have we robbed thee? In the tithes and the offerings.

jub@Malachi:3:9 @ Ye [are] cursed with a curse: for ye, even this whole nation, have robbed me.

jub@Malachi:3:10 @ Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, and there shall be food in my house, and prove me now in this, said the LORD of the hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].

jub@Malachi:3:11 @ And I will reprehend the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of the ground; neither shall the vine in the field abort, said the LORD of the hosts.

jub@Malachi:3:12 @ And all the Gentiles shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, said the LORD of the hosts.

jub@Malachi:3:13 @ Your words have prevailed against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, What have we spoken against thee?

jub@Malachi:3:14 @ Ye have said, It [is] vain to serve God, and what profit [is it] that we have kept his law and that we walk mournfully before the LORD of the hosts?

jub@Malachi:3:15 @ We say, therefore, now, that blessed are the proud and even that those that work wickedness are prospered; [those that] tempted God have escaped.

jub@Malachi:3:16 @ Then those that feared the LORD spoke one to another, and the LORD hearkened and heard [it], and a book of remembrance was written before him for those that feared the LORD and for those that think in his name.

jub@Malachi:3:17 @ And they shall be mine, said the LORD of the hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son that serves him.

jub@Malachi:3:18 @ Therefore become ye converted, and ye shall make a difference between the just and the wicked, between him that serves God and him that did not serve him.:
