I have lovedH157 you, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. Yet ye sayH559, Wherein hast thou lovedH157 us? Was not EsauH6215 Jacob'sH3290 brotherH251? saithH559 the LORDH3068: yet I lovedH157 JacobH3290,

Whereas EdomH123 saithH559, We are impoverishedH7567, but we will returnH7725 and buildH1129 the desolate placesH2723; thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, They shall buildH1129, but I will throw downH2040; and they shall callH7121 them, The borderH1366 of wickednessH7564, and, The peopleH5971 against whom the LORDH3068 hath indignationH2194 forH5704 everH5769.
And your eyesH5869 shall seeH7200, and ye shall sayH559, The LORDH3068 will be magnifiedH1431 from the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478. {from: or, upon: Heb. from upon}
A sonH1121 honourethH3513 his fatherH1, and a servantH5650 his masterH113: if then I be a fatherH1, where is mine honourH3519? and if I be a masterH113, where is my fearH4172? saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 unto you, O priestsH3548, that despiseH959 my nameH8034.

Ye offerH5066 pollutedH1351 breadH3899 upon mine altarH4196; and ye sayH559, Wherein have we pollutedH1351 thee? In that ye sayH559, The tableH7979 of the LORDH3068 is contemptibleH959. {offer…: or, bring unto, etc}

Who is there even among you that would shutH5462 the doorsH1817 for nought? neither do ye kindleH215 fire on mine altarH4196 for noughtH2600. I have no pleasureH2656 in you, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, neither will I acceptH7521 an offeringH4503 at your handH3027.
For from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 even unto the going downH3996 of the same my nameH8034 shall be greatH1419 among the GentilesH1471; and in every placeH4725 incenseH6999 shall be offeredH5066 unto my nameH8034, and a pureH2889 offeringH4503: for my nameH8034 shall be greatH1419 among the heathenH1471, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
But ye have profanedH2490 it, in that ye sayH559, The tableH7979 of the LORDH3068 is pollutedH1351; and the fruitH5108 thereof, even his meatH400, is contemptibleH959.
Ye saidH559 also, Behold, what a wearinessH4972 is it! and ye have snuffedH5301 at it, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; and ye broughtH935 that which was tornH1497, and the lameH6455, and the sickH2470; thus ye broughtH935 an offeringH4503: should I acceptH7521 this of your handH3027? saithH559 the LORDH3068. {and ye have…: or, whereas ye might have blown it away}
But cursedH779 be the deceiverH5230, whichH3426 hath in his flockH5739 a maleH2145, and vowethH5087, and sacrificethH2076 unto the LordH136 a corrupt thingH7843: for I am a greatH1419 KingH4428, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and my nameH8034 is dreadfulH3372 among the heathenH1471. {which…: Heb. in whose flock is}
