Malachi 2:13-16

13And this have ye doneH6213 againH8145, coveringH3680 the altarH4196 of YhwhH3068 with tearsH1832, with weepingH1065, and with crying outH603, insomuch that he regardethH6437 not the offeringH4503 any more, or receivethH3947 it with good willH7522 at your handH3027.

14Yet ye sayH559, WhereforeH4100? because YhwhH3068 hath been witnessH5749 between thee and the wifeH802 of thy youthH5271, against whom thou hast dealt treacherouslyH898: yet is she thy companionH2278, and the wifeH802 of thy covenantH1285. 15And did not he makeH6213 oneH259? Yet had he the residueH7605 of the spiritH7307. And wherefore oneH259? That he might seekH1245 a godlyH430 seedH2233. Therefore take heedH8104 to your spiritH7307, and let none deal treacherouslyH898 against the wifeH802 of his youthH5271.123 16For YhwhH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saithH559 that he hatethH8130 putting awayH7971: for one coverethH3680 violenceH2555 with his garmentH3830, saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635: therefore take heedH8104 to your spiritH7307, that ye deal not treacherouslyH898.45
