Malachi 2:11-13
Expanded Bible
11 ·The people of Judah [L Judah] have ·broken their promises [been unfaithful]. They have done ·something God hates [an abomination/detestable thing] in Israel and Jerusalem: ·The people of Judah [L Judah] ·did not respect [desecrated] the ·Temple [sanctuary; or holy things] that the Lord loves, and the men of Judah married ·women who worship [L the daughter of] foreign gods. 12 Whoever does this might bring offerings to the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts], but the Lord will still cut that person off from the ·community of Israel [L tents of Jacob].
13 This is another thing you do. You cover the Lord’s altar with your tears. You ·cry [weep] and moan, because he does not ·accept [look with favor on] your offerings and is not pleased with what you bring.

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)
