Chap. I.
note
God shewed his especial loue towards the Iewes, in that he choise their progenitor
Iacob, rather then Esau. 7. Priestes are reprehended, for not offering
the best thinges in sacrifice. 10. The old sacrifices shal be reiected,
and new farre more excellent shal be offered in al nations.
1 The burden of the word of our Lord to Israel in
the hand of Malachie.
2 I haue loued you, sayth our
Lord: & you haue sayd: Wherin hast thou loued vs?
noteWas not Esau brother to Iacob, sayth our Lord,
and I loued Iacob,
3 but hated Esau? and I layd his mountaines
into a wildernes, & his inheritance vnto the dragons of
the desert.
4 But if Idumea shal say: We are destroyed, but returning
we wil build the thinges that are destroyed: thus
sayth the Lord of hosts: These shal build, and I wil destroy:
and they shal be called the borders of impietie, and the people
with whom our Lord is angrie note for euer.
5 And your eyes shal
see: and you shal say: Our Lord be magnified vpon the border
of Israel.
6 The sonne honoureth the father, and the seruant
his lord: if then I be the father, where is my honour? and if I
be the Lord, where is my feare: sayth the Lord of hosts?
7 To
you รด priests, that despise my name, & haue sayd: Wherin haue
we despised thy name? noteYou offer vpon myne altar polluted
bread: and you say: Wherin haue we polluted thee? In that you
say: The table of our Lord is contemptible.
8 If you offer
the blind to be immolated, is it not euil? and if you offer the
lame and the feble is it not euil? offer it note to thy prince if it shal
please him, or if he wil receiue thy face, sayth the Lord of
hosts.
9 And now besech ye the face of God, that he may haue
mercie on you (for by your hand hath this bene done) if by any
meanes he wil receiue your faces, saith the Lord of hosts.
10 Who
is there among you, that wil shut the doores, & wil kindle fire
on my altar for naught? 09Q0323I haue no wil in you, sayth the Lord
of hosts: and gift I wil not receiue of your hand.
11 For from the
rising of the sunne euen to the going downe, great is my name
among the Gentils, &09Q0324 in euerie place there is sacrificing, and
there is offered to my name a cleane oblation: because my name
is great among the Gentils, sayth the Lord of hosts.
12 And
you haue polluted it in that you say: The table of our Lord is
contaminated: and that which is layd therupon, is contemptible
with the fyre, that deuoureth it.
13 And you haue sayd:
-- --
Loe of labour, and you puffed at it, sayth the Lord of hosts,
and you brought in note of robberies note the lame, & the sicke, and
brought in a gift: Why, shal I receiue it of your hand, sayth our
Lord?
14 Cursed is the deceitful, that hath in his flocke a male,
and making a vow immolateth the feeble to our Lord: because
I am a great King, sayth the Lord of hosts, and my name is
dreadful among the Gentils.
