Malachi 3:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Will a [a]man spoil his gods? yet have ye spoiled me: but ye say, Wherein have we spoiled thee? In [b]tithes and offerings.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have spoiled me, even this whole nation.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven unto you, and pour you out a blessing [c]without measure.
