Malachi 2:11-13
Christian Standard Bible
11 Judah has acted treacherously, and a detestable(A) act has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem. For Judah has profaned(B) the Lord’s sanctuary,[a](C) which he loves,(D) and has married the daughter of a foreign god.[b](E) 12 May the Lord cut off(F) from the tents of Jacob the man who does this, whoever he may be,[c](G) even if he presents an offering to the Lord of Armies.
13 This is another thing you do. You are covering the Lord’s altar with tears, with weeping and groaning,(H) because he no longer respects your offerings or receives them gladly from your hands.(I)

Malachi 2:11-13
New International Version
11 Judah has been unfaithful. A detestable(A) thing has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem: Judah has desecrated the sanctuary the Lord loves(B) by marrying(C) women who worship a foreign god.(D) 12 As for the man who does this, whoever he may be, may the Lord remove(E) him from the tents of Jacob[a](F)—even though he brings an offering(G) to the Lord Almighty.
13 Another thing you do: You flood the Lord’s altar with tears.(H) You weep and wail(I) because he no longer looks with favor(J) on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands.(K)
