* For I am the LORD , I change not ; therefore all of you sons of Jacob are not consumed . * Even from the days of your fathers all of you are gone away from mine ordinances , and have not kept them . Return unto me , and I will return unto you , says the LORD of hosts . But all of you said , Wherein shall we return ? * Will a man rob God ? Yet all of you have robbed me . But all of you say , Wherein have we robbed you ? In tithes and offerings . * All of you are cursed with a curse : for all of you have robbed me , even this whole nation . * Bring all of you all the tithes into the storehouse , that there may be food in mine house , and prove me now herewith , says the LORD of 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 . * And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes , and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground ; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field , says the LORD of hosts . * And all nations shall call you blessed : for all of you shall be a delightsome land , says the LORD of hosts . * Your words have been stout against me , says the LORD . Yet all of you say , What have we spoken so much against you ? * All of you have said , It is vain to serve God : and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance , and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts ? * And now we call the proud happy ; yea , they that work wickedness are set up ; yea , they that tempt God are even delivered . * Then they that feared the LORD spoke often one to another : and the LORD hearkened , and heard it , and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD , and that thought upon his name . * And they shall be mine , says the LORD of 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 . * Then shall all of you return , and discern between the righteous and the wicked , between him that serves God and him that serves him not .
