Malachi 3:8-12

Christian Standard Bible

⁸ “Will a man rob^(A) God? Yet you are robbing me!”

“How do we rob you?” you ask.

“By not making the payments of the tenth and the contributions.^{(B) 9} You are suffering under a curse, yet^[a] you—the whole nation—are still robbing me. ¹⁰ Bring the full tenth into the storehouse^(C) so that there may be food in my house.^(D) Test me in this way,”^(E) says the Lord of Armies. “See if I will not open the floodgates of heaven^(F) and pour out a blessing for you without measure.^{(G) 11} I will rebuke the devourer^[b](H) for you, so that it will not ruin the produce of your land and your vine in your field will not fail to produce fruit,” says the Lord of Armies. ¹² “Then all the nations will consider you fortunate, for you will be a delightful land,” says the Lord of Armies.
