Malachi 2:10-16

10Have we not all one father? Hath not one 1God created us? Why do we deal unfaithfully every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?

11Judah hath dealt unfaithfully, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the sanctuary of Jehovah which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange 2god.

12Jehovah will cut off from the tents of Jacob the man that doeth this, him that calleth and him that answereth; and him that offereth an oblation unto Jehovah of hosts.

13And further ye do this: ye cover the altar of Jehovah with tears, with weeping, and with sighing, insomuch that he regardeth not the oblation any more, nor receiveth [it] with satisfaction at your hand.

14Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because Jehovah hath been a witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt unfaithfully: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.

15And did not one make [them]? and the remnant of the Spirit was his. And wherefore the one? He sought a seed of 3God. Take heed then to your spirit, and let none deal unfaithfully against the wife of his youth,

16(for I hate putting away, saith Jehovah the 4God of Israel;) and he covereth with violence his garment, saith Jehovah of hosts: take heed then to your spirit, that ye deal not unfaithfully.
