Malachi 2:13-15
New American Standard Bible 1995
13 “This is [a]another thing you do: you cover the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping and with groaning, because He (A)no longer regards the [b]offering or accepts it with favor from your hand. 14 Yet you say, ‘For what reason?’ Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the (B)wife of your youth, against whom you have dealt (C)treacherously, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. 15 [c]But not one has (D)done so who has a remnant of the Spirit. And [d]what did that one do while he was seeking a (E)godly [e]offspring? Take heed then to your spirit, and let no one deal (F)treacherously against the wife of your youth.
