　　基督教圣经 旧约 玛拉基书(Malachi) 第1章

　　第1段

　　耶和华藉玛拉基传给以色列的默示。

　　The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.

　　第2段

　　耶和华说，我曾爱你们。你们却说，你在何事上爱我们呢。耶和华说，以扫不是雅各的哥哥吗。我却爱雅各，

　　I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob,

　　第3段

　　恶以扫，使他的山岭荒凉，把他的地业交给旷野的野狗。

　　And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

　　第4段

　　以东人说，我们现在虽被毁坏，却要重建荒废之处。万军之耶和华如此说，任他们建造，我必拆毁。人必称他们的地，为罪恶之境，称他们的民，为耶和华永远恼怒之民。

　　Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.

　　第5段

　　你们必亲眼看见，也必说，愿耶和华在以色列境界之外，被尊为大。

　　And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel.

　　第6段

　　藐视我名的祭司阿，万军之耶和华对你们说，儿子尊敬父亲，仆人敬畏主人。我既为父亲，尊敬我的在哪里呢。我既为主人，敬畏我的在哪里呢。你们却说，我们在何事上藐视你的名呢？

　　A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?

　　第7段

　　你们将污秽的食物献在我的坛上，且说，我们在何事上污秽你呢。因你们说，耶和华的桌子是可藐视的。

　　Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the LORD is contemptible.

　　第8段

　　你们将瞎眼的献为祭物，这不为恶吗。将瘸腿的，有病的献上，这不为恶吗。你献给你的省长，他岂喜悦你，岂能看你的情面吗。这是万军之耶和华说的。

　　And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts.

　　第9段

　　现在我劝你们恳求神，他好施恩与我们。这妄献的事，既由你们经手，他岂能看你们的情面吗。这是万军之耶和华说的。

　　And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith the LORD of hosts.

　　第10段

　　甚愿你们中间有一人关上殿门，免得你们徒然在我坛上烧火。万军之耶和华说，我不喜悦你们，也不从你们手中收纳供物。

　　Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the LORD of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.

　　第11段

　　万军之耶和华说，从日出之地到日落之处，我的名在外邦中必尊为大。在各处，人必奉我的名烧香，献洁净的供物。因为我的名在外邦中必尊为大。

　　For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts.

　　第12段

　　你们却亵渎我的名，说，耶和华的桌子是污秽的，其上的食物是可藐视的。

　　But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the LORD is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible.

　　第13段

　　你们又说，这些事何等烦琐。并嗤之以鼻。这是万军之耶和华说的。你们把抢夺的，瘸腿的，有病的拿来献上为祭。我岂能从你们手中收纳呢。这是耶和华说的。

　　Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD.

　　第14段

　　行诡诈的在群中有公羊，他许愿却用有残疾的献给主，这人是可咒诅的。因为我是大君王，我的名在外邦中是可畏的。这是万军之耶和华说的。

　　But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the LORD a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen.
