Малахия 2
Библия, синодално издание
2 И тъй, за вас, свещеници, е тая заповед:
2 (A)ако не послушате и ако не вземете присърце, та да въздавате слава на името Ми, казва Господ Саваот, то Аз ще пратя върху вас проклятие и ще прокълна вашите благословии, и вече проклевам, защото вие не искате да вземете това присърце.
3 (B)Ето, Аз ще ви отнема рамото, и нечистотии ще разхвърлям по лицата ви, нечистотии от празничните ви жертви, и ще ви изхвърлям заедно с тях.
4 (C)И вие ще познаете, че Аз дадох тая заповед за спазване завета Ми с Левия, казва Господ Саваот.
5 (D)Заветът Ми с него беше завет на живот и мир, и Аз му го дадох за страх, той се боеше от Мене и благоговееше пред името Ми.
6 (E)Законът на истината беше на устата му, и неправда не се намираше на езика му; в мир и правда той ходеше с Мене и мнозина отклони от грях.
7 (F)Защото устата на свещеника трябва да пазят знание, и закона търсят от устата му, защото той е вестител на Господа Саваота.
8 Но вие се отклонихте от тоя път, на мнозина послужихте за съблазън в закона, разрушихте завета на Левия, казва Господ Саваот.
9 (G)Затова и Аз ще ви направя презрени и унизени пред целия народ, понеже не спазвате пътищата Ми, гледате на лице в делата на закона.
10 (H)Нали всички имаме един и същ Отец? Нали един Бог ни сътвори? Защо тогава постъпваме вероломно един спрямо другиго, като нарушаваме чрез това завета на нашите отци?
11 (I)Вероломно постъпва Иуда, и мръсотия се върши в Израиля и в Иерусалим; защото Иуда унизи светинята Господня, която обичах, и се ожени за дъщерята на чужди бог.
12 Господ ще изтреби из Иакововите шатри оногова, който върши това, който бди на стража, който отговаря и принася жертва Господу Саваоту.
13 (J)И ето какво още вършите: вие карате да обливат със сълзи жертвеника на Господа с ридание и вопли, тъй че Той вече не поглежда на приноса и не приема умилостивна жертва от ръцете ви.
14 (K)Вие ще кажете: за какво? За това, че Господ беше свидетел между тебе и жената на твоите младини, към която ти постъпи вероломно, когато тя е твоя другарка и твоя законна жена.
15 (L)Но не направи ли същото и един друг, в когото пребъдваше превъзходен дух? А какво направи тоя друг? Той искаше да получи от Бога потомство. И тъй, пазете духа си, и никой да не постъпва вероломно с жената на младините си.
16 (M)Ако от омраза я напуснеш, казва Господ Бог Израилев, безчестие ще покрие дрехата ти, казва Господ Саваот; затова вардете духа си, не постъпвайте вероломно.
17 (N)Вие гневите Господа с думите си и казвате: с какво Го разгневяваме? С това, че казвате: всеки, който прави зло, добър е пред очите на Господа, и към такива Той благоволи, или: де е Бог на правосъдието?
Malachi 2
World English Bible
2 “Now, you priests, this commandment is for you. 2 If you will not listen, and if you will not take it to heart, to give glory to my name,” says Yahweh of Armies, “then I will send the curse on you, and I will curse your blessings. Indeed, I have cursed them already, because you do not take it to heart. 3 Behold, I will rebuke your offspring,[a] and will spread dung on your faces, even the dung of your feasts; and you will be taken away with it. 4 You will know that I have sent this commandment to you, that my covenant may be with Levi,” says Yahweh of Armies. 5 “My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him that he might be reverent toward me; and he was reverent toward me, and stood in awe of my name. 6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and unrighteousness was not found in his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and turned many away from iniquity. 7 For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the messenger of Yahweh of Armies. 8 But you have turned away from the path. You have caused many to stumble in the law. You have corrupted the covenant of Levi,” says Yahweh of Armies. 9 “Therefore I have also made you contemptible and wicked before all the people, according to the way you have not kept my ways, but have had respect for persons in the law. 10 Don’t we all have one father? Hasn’t one God created us? Why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, profaning the covenant of our fathers? 11 Judah has dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah has profaned the holiness of Yahweh which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god. 12 Yahweh will cut off the man who does this, him who wakes and him who answers, out of the tents of Jacob and him who offers an offering to Yahweh of Armies.
13 “This again you do: you cover Yahweh’s altar with tears, with weeping, and with sighing, because he doesn’t regard the offering any more, neither receives it with good will at your hand. 14 Yet you say, ‘Why?’ Because Yahweh has been witness between you and the wife of your youth, against whom you have dealt treacherously, though she is your companion and the wife of your covenant. 15 Did he not make you one, although he had the residue of the Spirit? Why one? He sought godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let no one deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. 16 One who hates and divorces”, says Yahweh, the God of Israel, “covers his garment with violence!” says Yahweh of Armies. “Therefore pay attention to your spirit, that you don’t be unfaithful.
17 You have wearied Yahweh with your words. Yet you say, ‘How have we wearied him?’ In that you say, ‘Everyone who does evil is good in Yahweh’s sight, and he delights in them;’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?’

Malachi 2
New International Version
Additional Warning to the Priests
2 “And now, you priests, this warning is for you.(A) 2 If you do not listen,(B) and if you do not resolve to honor(C) my name,” says the Lord Almighty, “I will send a curse(D) on you, and I will curse your blessings.(E) Yes, I have already cursed them, because you have not resolved to honor me.
3 “Because of you I will rebuke your descendants[a]; I will smear on your faces the dung(F) from your festival sacrifices, and you will be carried off with it.(G) 4 And you will know that I have sent you this warning so that my covenant with Levi(H) may continue,” says the Lord Almighty. 5 “My covenant was with him, a covenant(I) of life and peace,(J) and I gave them to him; this called for reverence(K) and he revered me and stood in awe of my name. 6 True instruction(L) was in his mouth and nothing false was found on his lips. He walked(M) with me in peace(N) and uprightness,(O) and turned many from sin.(P)
7 “For the lips of a priest(Q) ought to preserve knowledge, because he is the messenger(R) of the Lord Almighty and people seek instruction from his mouth.(S) 8 But you have turned from the way(T) and by your teaching have caused many to stumble;(U) you have violated the covenant(V) with Levi,”(W) says the Lord Almighty. 9 “So I have caused you to be despised(X) and humiliated(Y) before all the people, because you have not followed my ways but have shown partiality(Z) in matters of the law.”(AA)
Breaking Covenant Through Divorce
10 Do we not all have one Father[b]?(AB) Did not one God create us?(AC) Why do we profane the covenant(AD) of our ancestors by being unfaithful(AE) to one another?
11 Judah has been unfaithful. A detestable(AF) thing has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem: Judah has desecrated the sanctuary the Lord loves(AG) by marrying(AH) women who worship a foreign god.(AI) 12 As for the man who does this, whoever he may be, may the Lord remove(AJ) him from the tents of Jacob[c](AK)—even though he brings an offering(AL) to the Lord Almighty.
13 Another thing you do: You flood the Lord’s altar with tears.(AM) You weep and wail(AN) because he no longer looks with favor(AO) on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands.(AP) 14 You ask,(AQ) “Why?” It is because the Lord is the witness(AR) between you and the wife of your youth.(AS) You have been unfaithful to her, though she is your partner, the wife of your marriage covenant.(AT)
15 Has not the one God made you?(AU) You belong to him in body and spirit. And what does the one God seek? Godly offspring.[d](AV) So be on your guard,(AW) and do not be unfaithful(AX) to the wife of your youth.
16 “The man who hates and divorces his wife,(AY)” says the Lord, the God of Israel, “does violence to the one he should protect,”[e](AZ) says the Lord Almighty.
So be on your guard,(BA) and do not be unfaithful.
Breaking Covenant Through Injustice
17 You have wearied(BB) the Lord with your words.
“How have we wearied him?” you ask.(BC)
By saying, “All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord, and he is pleased(BD) with them” or “Where is the God of justice?(BE)”
