and [obj] Esau to hate and to set: make [obj] mountain: mount his devastation and [obj] inheritance his to/for jackal wilderness
4 Kama Edomu husema, “Tumepigwa, lakini tutarudi na kujenga palipoharibiwa; “Bwana wa Majeshi asama hivi, “Watajenga lakini nitaiangusha chini; na wanaume watawaita 'Nchi ya uovu', na 'Watu ambao ambao Mungu ana hasira nao milele.”'

8 Mkitoa sadaka ya wanyama vipofu, hiyo siyo dhambi? na kama mkitoa vilema na wagonjwa, hiyo siyo dhambi? pelekeni hili kwa liwali; atawakubali au atainua nyuso zetu?” asema Bwana wa Majeshi.
and for to approach: bring [emph?] blind to/for to sacrifice nothing bad: evil and for to approach: bring lame and be weak: ill nothing bad: evil to present: bring him please to/for governor your to accept you or to lift: kindness face: kindness your to say LORD Hosts
9 Na sasa, mnajaribu kutafuta neema ya Mungu, ili kwamba awe mwema kwetu. “Na aina gani ya sadaka kwa sehemu yenu, ataziinua nyuso zenu? asema Bwana wa Majeshi.
and now to beg please face of God and be gracious us from hand: power your to be this to lift: kindness from you face: kindness to say LORD Hosts
10 Kama kungekuwa na mtu ambaye angefunga lango la Hekalu, ili kwamba kusewe na mto madhabahuni bure! lakini sina radhi na ninyi, “asema Bwana wa majeshi, “na sitaikubali sadaka yeyote kutoka katika mikono yenu.

11 Kutoka mawio ya jua mpaka machweo jina langu litakuwa kuu katikati ya mataifa; katika kila sehemu uvumba utatolewa katika jina langu, na pia sadaka safi. Kwa sababu jina langu likuwa kuu sana katikatik ya mataif,” asema Bwana wa majeshi.
for from east sun and till entrance his great: large name my in/on/with nation and in/on/with all place incense to approach: bring to/for name my and offering pure for great: large name my in/on/with nation to say LORD Hosts
12 “lakini ninyi mnachafua mnaposema meza ya Bwana mnainajisi, na matunda yake, na chakula chake kudharauka.
and you(m. p.) to profane/begin: profane [obj] him in/on/with to say you table Lord to defile he/she/it and fruit his to despise food his
