Malachi 1:9-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
9
But now, do indeed plead for God’s favor, so that He will be gracious to us. With such an offering on your part, will He receive any of you kindly?' says the
Lord
of armies.
10
If only there were one among you who would shut the gates, so that you would not kindle
fire on
My altar for nothing! I am not pleased with you,' says the
Lord
of armies, 'nor will I accept an offering from your hand.
11
For from the rising of the sun even to its setting, My name
shall be
great among the nations, and in every place frankincense is going to be offered to My name, and a grain offering
that is
pure; for My name
shall be
great among the nations,' says the
Lord
of armies.
12
But you are profaning it by your saying, ‘The table of the Lord is defiled, and as for its fruit, its food is to be despised.’
King James Version
Chapter 1
9
And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith the
Lord
of hosts.
10
Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the
Lord
of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
11
For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the
Lord
of hosts.
12
But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the
Lord
is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible.
Christian Standard Bible

9
"And now plead for God’s favor. Will he be gracious to us? Since this has come from your hands, will he show any of you favor?" asks the
Lord
of Armies.
10
"I wish one of you would shut the temple doors, so that you would no longer kindle a useless fire on my altar! I am not pleased with you," says the
Lord
of Armies, "and I will accept no offering from your hands.
11
"My name will be great among the nations, from the rising of the sun to its setting. Incense and pure offerings will be presented in my name in every place because my name will be great among the nations," says the
Lord
of Armies.
12
"But you are profaning it when you say: ‘The Lord’s table is defiled, and its product, its food, is contemptible.’
New Living Translation

9
Go ahead, beg God to be merciful to you! But when you bring that kind of offering, why should he show you any favor at all?' asks the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
10
How I wish one of you would shut the Temple doors so that these worthless sacrifices could not be offered! I am not pleased with you,' says the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies, 'and I will not accept your offerings.
11
But my name is honored by people of other nations from morning till night. All around the world they offer sweet incense and pure offerings in honor of my name. For my name is great among the nations,' says the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
12
But you dishonor my name with your actions. By bringing contemptible food, you are saying it’s all right to defile the Lord’s table.
