Malachi

Chapter 2

1 And now,6258 O you priests,3548 this2063 commandment4687 is for you.

2 If518 you will not hear,8085 and if518 you will not lay7760 it to heart,3820 to give5414 glory3519 to my name,8034 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I will even send7971 a curse3994 on you, and I will curse779 your blessings:1293 yes,1571 I have cursed779 them already, because3588 you do not lay7760 it to heart.3820

3 Behold,2005 I will corrupt1605 your seed,2233 and spread2219 dung6569 on your faces,6440 even the dung6569 of your solemn2282 feasts;2282 and one shall take5375 you away with it.

4 And you shall know3045 that I have sent7971 this2063 commandment4687 to you, that my covenant1285 might be with Levi,3878 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts.6635

5 My covenant1285 was with him of life2416 and peace;7965 and I gave5414 them to him for the fear4172 with which834 he feared3372 me, and was afraid2865 before6440 my name.8034

6 The law8451 of truth571 was in his mouth,6310 and iniquity5766 was not found4672 in his lips:8193 he walked1980 with me in peace7965 and equity,4334 and did turn7725 many7227 away from iniquity.5771

7 For the priest's3548 lips8193 should keep2287 knowledge,1847 and they should seek1245 the law8451 at his mouth:6310 for he is the messenger4397 of the LORD3068 of hosts.6635

8 But you are departed5493 out of the way;1870 you have caused many7227 to stumble3782 at the law;8451 you have corrupted7843 the covenant1285 of Levi,3878 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts.6635

9 Therefore have I also1571 made5414 you contemptible959 and base8217 before all3605 the people,5971 according6310 as you have not kept8104 my ways,1870 but have been partial5375 6440 in the law.8451

10 Have we not all3605 one259 father?2 has not one259 God410 created1254 us? why4069 do we deal treacherously898 every man376 against his brother,251 by profaning2490 the covenant1285 of our fathers?1

11 Judah3063 has dealt treacherously,898 and an abomination8441 is committed6213 in Israel3478 and in Jerusalem;3389 for Judah3063 has profaned2490 the holiness6944 of the LORD3068 which834 he loved,157 and has married1166 the daughter1323 of a strange5236 god.410

12 The LORD3068 will cut3772 off the man376 that does6213 this, the master5782 and the scholar,6030 out of the tabernacles168 of Jacob,3290 and him that offers5066 an offering4503 to the LORD3068 of hosts.6635

13 And this have you done6213 again,8145 covering3680 the altar4196 of the LORD3068 with tears,1832 with weeping,1065 and with crying603 out, so that he regards6437 not the offering4503 any more,5750 or receives3947 it with good7522 will7522 at your hand.3027

14 Yet you say,559 Why?5921 Because5921 3588 the LORD3068 has been witness5749 between996 you and the wife802 of your youth,5271 against whom834 you have dealt treacherously:898 yet is she your companion,2278 and the wife802 of your covenant.1285

15 And did not he make6213 one?259 Yet had he the residue7605 of the spirit.7307 And why4100 one?259 That he might seek1245 a godly430 seed.2233 Therefore take heed8104 to your spirit,7307 and let none408 deal treacherously898 against the wife802 of his youth.5271

16 For the LORD,3068 the God430 of Israel,3478 said559 that he hates8130 putting7971 away: for one covers3680 violence2555 with his garment,3830 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts:6635 therefore take heed8104 to your spirit,7307 that you deal not treacherously.898

17 You have wearied3021 the LORD3068 with your words.1697 Yet you say,559 Wherein4100 have we wearied3021 him? When you say,559 Every3605 one that does6213 evil7451 is good2896 in the sight5869 of the LORD,3068 and he delights2654 in them; or,176 Where346 is the God430 of judgment?4941

第2章

1 爾諸祭司、宜聽斯命、

2 萬有之主耶和華曰、如爾不聽、不悉心以思維、歸榮我名、我必降爾以災、以爾純嘏、變爲咒詛、因爾不思、我已詛爾、

3 爾雖播種、我必壞之、爾守節期、而獻牲畜、我必以其糞、塗爾之容、人徙斯糞、亦必徒爾、

4 使爾知我傳斯命、令爾悔改、而我與利未人所立之約、可以恒存、我萬有之主耶和華已言之矣。

5 昔利未族寅畏我名、故與之約、錫以生命、賜以平康、

6 維彼所言、真實无妄、不行非義、從事乎我、中心誠恪、以獲平康、爰使衆庶、革其惡行、

7 維彼祭司、宜有智慧、旣爲萬有之主耶和華所遣、人當就彼、諮諏法度、

8 萬有之主耶和華曰、爾曹叛道、使衆陷罪、爽利未之約、

9 不從我道、偏視我法、故我使衆、藐視爾曹、

10 先知曰、我儕莫非一父所生、一上帝所造、何必相欺、背列祖之成約哉、

11 在以色列族耶路撒冷邑中、有可惡之事、猶大人背厥盟約、以耶和華所愛成聖之民、反視爲俗、以事他上帝之女、反聯爲姻、

12 在雅各帷中、或守夜之邏卒、或相應之戍兵、或奉禮物、以祭萬有之主耶和華、如作是事、耶和華必殲滅之、

13 爾復娶於異邦已棄之妻、詣耶和華臺前、哭泣號呼、澘然下涕、故耶和華不垂顧爾、不納爾禮物、

14 爾曰奚爲不納、曰、誠因爾遺棄幼時所娶之妻、彼乃爾之伉儷、爾嘗與彼立約、耶和華爲證、

15 上帝之神、綽然有餘、猶且祇造一男一女、彼造一男一女、誠何故哉、亦欲使所生之子、克敬克虔耳、故當守爾心、幼時所娶之妻、勿復遺棄、

16 萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華曰、人棄其妻、待以强暴、我所不悦、故當自守其心、勿遺棄之、

17 爾以多言煩瀆耶和華、爾曰、如何煩瀆之、曰、爾言作惡者、耶和華必以爲善、而悅納之、又言秉公之上帝安在。
