1 Et Udsagn; HERRENs Ord til Israel ved Malakias.
[the] oracle of [the] word of Yahweh to Israel by [the] hand of Malachi.
2 Jeg elsker eder, siger HERREN; men I spørger: "Hvori har du vist, at du elsker os?" Er Esau ikke Jakobs Broder, lyder det fra HERREN, og dog elsker jeg Jakob
I have loved you he says Yahweh and you say how? have you loved us ¿ not [did] a brother Esau [belong] to Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh and I loved Jacob.
3 og hader Esau. Jeg bar gjort hans Bjerge til Ørk og hans Arvelod til Øde.
And Esau I hated and I have made mountains his a waste and inheritance his for jackals of [the] wilderness.
4 Når Edom siger: "Vi er ødelagt, men vi bygger atter på Tomterne", så siger Hærskarers HERRE: De bygger, men jeg river ned! De skal kaldes Gudløsheds Land og det Folk, HERREN i al Evighed vredes på.
For it will say Edom we have been shattered and we may return so we may rebuild [the] ruins thus he says Yahweh of hosts they they will build and I I will tear down and people will call them a territory of wickedness and the people which he was indignant Yahweh until perpetuity.
5 I skal se det med egne Øjne og sige: "HERRENs Vælde når ud over Israels Grænser."
And eyes your they will see and you you will say he is great Yahweh over [the] border of Israel.
6 En Søn ærer sin Fader, en Træl frygter sin Herre. Men er jeg Fader, hvor er da min Ære, og er jeg Herre, hvor er da Frygten for mig? siger Hærskarers HERRE til eder, I Præster, som ringeagter mit Navn. I spørger: "Hvorved har vi ringeagtet dit Navn?"
A son he honors a father and a servant master his and if [am] a father I where? [is] honor my and if [am] a master I where? [is] fear my he says - Yahweh of hosts to you O priests [who] despise name my and you say how? have we despised name your.
7 Ved at bringe urent Brød på mit Alter! I spørger: "Hvorved har vi gjort det urent?" Ved at sige: "HERRENs Bord er lidet værd."
[you are] bringing near On altar my food defiled and you say how? have we defiled you by saying you [the] table of Yahweh [is] despicable it.
8 Når I bringer blinde Dyr som Offer, er der så ikke noget ondt deri? Når I bringer halte og syge Dyr, er der så ikke noget ondt deri? Bring dem engang til din Statholder! Mon han vil synes derom og tage vel imod dig? siger Hærskarers HERRE.
And if you bring near! a blind [animal] to sacrifice not? [is it] evil and if you bring near a lame [animal] and a sick [animal] [is it] not? evil bring near it please to governor your ¿ will he be pleased with you or ¿ will he lift up face your he says Yahweh of hosts.
9 Og så vil I stemme Gud til Mildhed dermed, at han må være os nådig! Fra eders Hånd kommer slige Ting! Mon han vil tage vel imod eder, siger Hærskarers HERRE.
And now entreat please [the] face of God so he may show favor to us from hand your it was this ¿ will he lift up any of you face he says Yahweh of hosts.
10 Vilde dog en af eder lukke Dørene, så I ikke til ingen Gavn skulde gøre Ild på mit Alter! Jeg bryder mig ikke om eder, siger Hærskarers HERRE, og ønsker ikke Offergaver af eders Hånd.
Who? also [is] among you so he may shut [the] doors and not you will set light to altar my in vain not [belongs] to me pleasure in you he says Yahweh of hosts and an offering not I will accept from hand your.
11 Thi fra Stedet, hvor Solen står op, til Stedet, hvor den går ned, er mit Navn stort iblandt Folkene, og alle Vegne bringes der mit Navn Røgoffer og rene Offergaver; thi mit Navn er stort iblandt Folkene, siger Hærskarers HERRE.
For from [the] rising of [the] sun and to setting its [is] great name my among the nations and in every place incense [is being] brought near to name my and an offering a pure for [is] great name my among the nations he says Yahweh of hosts.
12 Men I vanhelliger det ved at sige: "Herrens Bord er urent, og ussel Frugt er hans Mad."
And you [are] profaning it by saying you [the] table of [the] Lord [is] defiled it and fruit its [is] despicable food its.
13 Og I siger: "Hvilket Slid!" og blæser derad, siger Hærskarers HERRE; I bringer noget røvet, ja halte og syge Dyr; det er Offergaven, I bringer! Skulde jeg ønske at modtage den af eders Hånd? siger HERREN.
And you say there! what weariness! and you sniff at it he says Yahweh of hosts and you bring a stolen [animal] and the lame [animal] and the sick [animal] and you bring the offering ¿ will I accept it from hand your he says Yahweh.
14 Forbandet være den Bedrager, som i sin Hjord har et Handyr og lover mig det, men ofrer Herren et Dyr, som ikke dur! Thi en stor Konge er jeg, siger Hærskarers HERRE, og mit Navn er frygtet blandt Folkene.
And [be] cursed [one who] deals deceptively and there among flock his [is] a male and [one who] makes a vow and [one who] sacrifices a blemished [animal] to [the] Lord for [am] a king great I he says Yahweh of hosts and name my [is] feared among the nations.
