Malachi 1:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷         By approaching my altar with polluted food.
But you say, “How have we polluted it^[a]?”
        When you say, “The table of the Lord can be despised.”
⁸ If you bring a blind animal to sacrifice, isn’t that evil?
If you bring a lame or sick one, isn’t that evil?
Would you bring it to your governor?
Would he be pleased with it or accept you?
says the Lord of heavenly forces.
