1This is the burdenH4853 of the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 toH413 IsraelH3478 throughH3027 MalachiH4401:1

2“I have loved youH157,” saysH559 the LORDH3068.

But you askH559, “HowH4100 have You loved usH157?”

“Was notH3808 EsauH6215 Jacob’sH3290 brotherH251?” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068. “Yet JacobH3290 I have lovedH157, 3butH853 EsauH6215 I have hatedH8130,2 and I have madeH7760 his mountainsH2022 a wastelandH8077 and left his inheritanceH5159 to the desertH4057 jackalsH8568.3”
