+Book 39        Malachi
+
+39:001:001 The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.
+
+39:001:002 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,
+
+39:001:003 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage
+           waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
+
+39:001:004 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.
+
+39:001:005 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be
+           magnified from the border of Israel.
+
+39:001:006 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?
+
+39:001:007 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.
+
+39:001:008 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.
+
+39:001:009 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.
+
+39:001:010 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.
+
+39:001:011 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.
+
+39:001:012 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.
+
+39:001:013 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.
+
+39:001:014 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.
+
+39:002:001 And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you.
+
+39:002:002 If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to
+           give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even
+           send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I
+           have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.
+
+39:002:003 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your
+           faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take
+           you away with it.
+
+39:002:004 And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you,
+           that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:002:005 My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to
+           him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before
+           my name.
+
+39:002:006 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found
+           in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did
+           turn many away from iniquity.
+
+39:002:007 For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should
+           seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD
+           of hosts.
+
+39:002:008 But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to
+           stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi,
+           saith the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:002:009 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before
+           all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but
+           have been partial in the law.
+
+39:002:010 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why
+           do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by
+           profaning the covenant of our fathers?
+
+39:002:011 Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is
+           committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned
+           the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the
+           daughter of a strange god.
+
+39:002:012 The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and
+           the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that
+           offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:002:013 And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD
+           with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that
+           he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with
+           good will at your hand.
+
+39:002:014 Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness
+           between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast
+           dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of
+           thy covenant.
+
+39:002:015 And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit.
+           And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore
+           take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously
+           against the wife of his youth.
+
+39:002:016 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting
+           away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the
+           LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye
+           deal not treacherously.
+
+39:002:017 Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein
+           have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is
+           good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or,
+           Where is the God of judgment?
+
+39:003:001 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way
+           before me: and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to
+           his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye
+           delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:003:002 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand
+           when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like
+           fullers' soap:
+
+39:003:003 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he
+           shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and
+           silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in
+           righteousness.
+
+39:003:004 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant
+           unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.
+
+39:003:005 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift
+           witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and
+           against false swearers, and against those that oppress the
+           hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that
+           turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith
+           the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:003:006 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob
+           are not consumed.
+
+39:003:007 Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine
+           ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will
+           return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein
+           shall we return?
+
+39:003:008 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein
+           have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
+
+39:003:009 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this
+           whole nation.
+
+39:003:010 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be
+           meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD
+           of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and
+           pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough
+           to receive it.
+
+39:003:011 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall
+           not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine
+           cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of
+           hosts.
+
+39:003:012 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a
+           delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:003:013 Your words have been stout against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye
+           say, What have we spoken so much against thee?
+
+39:003:014 Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it
+           that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked
+           mournfully before the LORD of hosts?
+
+39:003:015 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work
+           wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even
+           delivered.
+
+39:003:016 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and
+           the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance
+           was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that
+           thought upon his name.
+
+39:003:017 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day
+           when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man
+           spareth his own son that serveth him.
+
+39:003:018 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and
+           the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth
+           him not.
+
+39:004:001 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and
+           all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be
+           stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the
+           LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor
+           branch.
+
+39:004:002 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness
+           arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and
+           grow up as calves of the stall.
+
+39:004:003 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes
+           under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this,
+           saith the LORD of hosts.
+
+39:004:004 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded
+           unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and
+           judgments.
+
+39:004:005 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming
+           of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
+
+39:004:006 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children,
+           and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come
+           and smite the earth with a curse.

+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:

+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date.  This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the

+Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)
+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
