Malachi 1:10-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
10 “I wish one of you would shut the temple doors,(A) so you would no longer kindle a useless fire on My altar!(B) I am not pleased with you,” says the Lord of Hosts, “and I will accept(C) no offering from your hands.(D)
11 “For My name will be great among the nations,(E) from the rising of the sun to its setting. Incense[a] and pure offerings will be presented in My name in every place because My name will be great among the nations,”[b] says Yahweh of Hosts.
12 But you are profaning it(F) when you say: “The Lord’s table is defiled, and its product, its food, is contemptible.”

I am not pleased(B) with you,” says the Lord Almighty, “and I will accept(C) no offering(D) from your hands. 11 My name will be great(E) among the nations,(F) from where the sun rises to where it sets.(G) In every place incense(H) and pure offerings(I) will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations,” says the Lord Almighty.
