Malachi 1:4-6
New King James Version
4 Even though Edom has said,
“We have been impoverished,
But we will return and build the desolate places,”
Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“They may build, but I will (A)throw down;
They shall be called the Territory of Wickedness,
And the people against whom the Lord will have indignation forever.
5 Your eyes shall see,
And you shall say,
(B)‘The Lord is magnified beyond the border of Israel.’
Polluted Offerings
6 “A son (C)honors his father,
And a servant his master.
(D)If then I am the Father,
Where is My honor?
And if I am a Master,
Where is My reverence?
Says the Lord of hosts
To you priests who despise My name.
(E)Yet you say, ‘In what way have we despised Your name?’
