1 Пророческое слово Господа к Израилю через Малахию.
1 A revelation, Yahweh’s word to Israel by Malachi.
2 Я возлюбил вас, говорит Господь. А вы говорите: "в чем явил Ты любовь к нам?" - Не брат ли Исав Иакову? говорит Господь; и однако же Я возлюбил Иакова,
2 “I have loved you,” says Yahweh. Yet you say, “How have you loved us?” “Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” says Yahweh, “Yet I loved Jacob;
3 а Исава возненавидел и предал горы его опустошению, и владения его - шакалам пустыни.
3 but Esau I hated, and made his mountains a desolation, and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness.”
4 Если Едом скажет: "мы разорены, но мы восстановим разрушенное", то Господь Саваоф говорит: они построят, а Я разрушу, и прозовут их областью нечестивою, народом, на который Господь прогневался навсегда.
4 Whereas Edom says, “We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places,” Yahweh of Armies says, “They shall build, but I will throw down; and men will call them ‘The Wicked Land,’ even the people against whom Yahweh shows wrath forever.”
5 И увидят это глаза ваши, и вы скажете: "возвеличился Господь над пределами Израиля!"
5 Your eyes will see, and you will say, “Yahweh is great—even beyond the border of Israel!”
6 Сын чтит отца и раб - господина своего; если Я отец, то где почтение ко Мне? и если Я Господь, то где благоговение предо Мною? говорит Господь Саваоф вам, священники, бесславящие имя Мое. Вы говорите: "чем мы бесславим имя Твое?"
6 “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If I am a father, then where is my honor? And if I am a master, where is the respect due me?” says Yahweh of Armies to you priests who despise my name. “You say, ‘How have we despised your name?’
7 Вы приносите на жертвенник Мой нечистый хлеб, и говорите: "чем мы бесславим Тебя?" - Тем, что говорите: "трапеза Господня не стоит уважения".
7 You offer polluted bread on my altar. You say, ‘How have we polluted you?’ In that you say, ‘Yahweh’s table is contemptible.’
8 И когда приносите в жертву слепое, не худо ли это? или когда приносите хромое и больное, не худо ли это? Поднеси это твоему князю; будет ли он доволен тобою и благосклонно ли примет тебя? говорит Господь Саваоф.
8 When you offer the blind for sacrifice, isn’t that evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, isn’t that evil? Present it now to your governor! Will he be pleased with you? Or will he accept your person?” says Yahweh of Armies.
9 Итак молитесь Богу, чтобы помиловал нас; а когда такое исходит из рук ваших, то может ли Он милостиво принимать вас? говорит Господь Саваоф.
9 “Now, please entreat the favor of God, that he may be gracious to us. With this, will he accept any of you?” says Yahweh of Armies.
10 Лучше кто-нибудь из вас запер бы двери, чтобы напрасно не держали огня на жертвеннике Моем. Нет Моего благоволения к вам, говорит Господь Саваоф, и приношение из рук ваших неблагоугодно Мне.
10 “Oh that there were one among you who would shut the doors, that you might not kindle fire on my altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you,” says Yahweh of Armies, “neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
11 Ибо от востока солнца до запада велико будет имя Мое между народами, и на всяком месте будут приносить фимиам имени Моему, чистую жертву; велико будет имя Мое между народами, говорит Господь Саваоф.
11 For from the rising of the sun even to its going down, my name is great among the nations, and in every place incense will be offered to my name, and a pure offering; for my name is great among the nations,” says Yahweh of Armies.
12 А вы хулите его тем, что говорите: "трапеза Господня не стоит уважения, и доход от нее - пища ничтожная".
12 “But you profane it when you say, ‘Yahweh’s table is polluted, and its fruit, even its food, is contemptible.’
13 Притом говорите: "вот сколько труда!" и пренебрегаете ею, говорит Господь Саваоф, и приносите украденное, хромое и больное, и такого же свойства приносите хлебный дар: могу ли с благоволением принимать это из рук ваших? говорит Господь.
13 You say also, ‘Behold, what a weariness it is!’ And you have sniffed at it”, says Yahweh of Armies; “and you have brought that which was taken by violence, the lame, and the sick; thus you bring the offering. Should I accept this at your hand?” says Yahweh.
14 Проклят лживый, у которого в стаде есть неиспорченный самец, и он дал обет, а приносит в жертву Господу поврежденное: ибо Я Царь великий, и имя Мое страшно у народов.
14 “But the deceiver is cursed who has in his flock a male, and vows and sacrifices to the Lord a defective thing; for I am a great King,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and my name is awesome among the nations.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… the rising of the sun, unto the going down [of the same], My name is glorified among the Gentiles, and in every place incense is offered to My name, and a pure sacrifice; for great is My name among the Gentiles, saith the Lord Omnipotent;" --indicating in the plainest manner, by these words, that the former people [the Jews] shall …
… even to the going down of the sun, my name is great among the nations; and in every place sacrifice shall be made, and a pure oblation shall be offered unto my name: for my name shall be great among the nations, saith the Lord." Since we can already see this sacrifice offered to God in every place, from the …

Agreeably to which the prophet also said to the Jews, I have no pleasure in you, saith the Lord Almighty; and immediately afterwards, For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same, My name is glorified among the Gentiles.

"A son," it is said, "honoureth his father, and a servant his master." Of these two the one, the servile, is given by the creature; the other, which may be called the intimate, is fulfilled by the Spirit.

This surely is that pure and bloodless sacrifice which the Lord through the prophet said is offered to Him from the rising to the setting of the sun.
