Malachi 3:8–15

⁸Will a man ⁱrob God? Yet ye have ⁱrobbed me.

^hBut ye say, Wherein have we ⁱrobbed thee?

In ^ktithes and ^lofferings.

⁹Ye are cursed with ^ma curse: for ye have ⁱrobbed me,

Even this whole nation.

¹⁰ⁿBring ye all the tithes into ^pthe storehouse,

That there may be ^qmeat in mine house,

And ^rprove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts,

If I will not ^sopen you the windows of heaven,

And ^†pour you out ^ta blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

¹¹And I will rebuke ^uthe devourer for your sakes,

And he shall not ^†destroy the fruits of your ground;

Neither ^vshall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.

¹²And ^wall nations shall call you blessed:

For ye shall be ^xa delightsome land, saith the Lord of hosts.

^13yYour words have been stout against me, saith the Lord.

^hYet ye say, What have we spoken so much against thee?

^14yzYe have said, ^aIt is vain to serve God:

And ^awhat profit is it that we have ^bkept ^†his ordinance,

And that we have walked ^†mournfully before the Lord of hosts?

^15cAnd now we ^dcall ^ethe proud happy;

^cYea, ^ethey that work wickedness ^†are set up;

^cYea, they that ^ftempt God are even delivered.
