(B)So that you would not kindle fire on My altar in vain?

(C)“Nor will I accept an offering from your hands.
11 For (D)from the rising of the sun, even to its going down,
My name shall be great (E)among the Gentiles;
(F)In every place (G)incense shall be offered to My name,
And a pure offering;
(H)For My name shall be great among the nations,”
