Malachi 1:2-6

2I have lovedH157 you, saith Jehovah. Yet ye sayH559, Wherein hast thou lovedH157 us? Was not EsauH6215 Jacob’s brotherH251? saith Jehovah: yet I lovedH157 JacobH3290; 3but EsauH6215 I hatedH8130, and madeH7760 his mountainsH2022 a desolationH8077, and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wildernessH4057. 4Whereas EdomH123 saith, We are beaten downH2040, but we will returnH7725 and buildH1129 the wasteH2723 placesH2723; thusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, They shall buildH1129, but I will throw down; and men shall callH7121 them The borderH1366 of wickednessH7564, and The peopleH5971 against whom Jehovah hath indignation for everH5769. 5And your eyesH5869 shall seeH7200, and ye shall sayH559, Jehovah be magnifiedH1431 beyond the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478.

6A sonH1121 honoreth his fatherH1, and a servantH5650 his masterH113: if then I am a fatherH1, whereH346 is mine honorH3513? and if I am a masterH113, whereH346 is my fearH4172? saith Jehovah of hostsH6635 unto you, O priestsH3548, that despiseH959 my nameH8034. And ye sayH559, Wherein have we despisedH959 thy nameH8034?
