*
And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice ,
is it not evil ?
and if ye offer the lame and sick ,
is it not evil ?
offer it now unto thy governor ;
will he be pleased with thee ,
or accept thy person ?
saith the LORD of hosts .
*
And now ,
I pray you ,
beseech God that he will be gracious unto us :
this hath been by your means :
will he regard your persons ?
saith the LORD of hosts .
*
Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought ?
neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought .
I have no pleasure in you ,
saith the LORD of hosts ,
neither will I accept an offering at your hand .
*
For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles ;
and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name ,
and a pure offering :
for my name shall be great among the heathen ,
saith the LORD of hosts .
*
But ye have profaned it ,
in that ye say ,
The table of the LORD is polluted ;
and the fruit thereof ,
even his meat ,
is contemptible .
*
Ye said also ,
Behold ,
what a weariness is it !
and ye have snuffed at it ,
saith the LORD of hosts ;
and ye brought that which was torn ,
and the lame ,
and the sick ;
thus ye brought an offering :
should I accept this of your hand ?
saith the LORD .
