Malachi 1:7-9
Lexham English Bible

7 You are presenting defiled food on my altar! But you ask, ‘How have we defiled you?’ By saying that the table of Yahweh is despised! 8 When you offer a blind animal for sacrifice, is that not wrong?[a] And when you offer the lame and the one who is ill, is that not wrong?[b] Present it, please, to your governor! Will he be pleased with you? Will he show you favor?”[c] says Yahweh of hosts. 9 So then, implore the favor of God[d] so that he will be gracious to us. “This is what you have done.[e] Will he show favor to any of you?”[f] says Yahweh of hosts.
