⁷ You are presenting ^(A)defiled ^[a](B)food upon My altar. But you say, ‘How have we defiled You?’ In that you say, ‘The ^(C)table of Yahweh is to be despised.’ ⁸ But when you present the ^(D)blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And when you present the lame and sick, is it not evil? Please, bring it near to your ^(E)governor! Would he accept you? Or would he lift up your face?” says Yahweh of hosts. ⁹ “But now, ^[b](F)entreat God’s favor, that He may be gracious to us! With this thing which is from your hand, will He ^(G)lift up any of your faces?” says Yahweh of hosts.
