4 Then the [a]offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be (A)pleasing to the Lord as in the (B)days of old, and as in former years.
5 “Then I will come near to you for judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the (C)sorcerers, the (D)adulterers, against those who (E)swear falsely, those who [b]oppress the (F)wage earner in his wages or the (G)widow or the [c]orphan, and those who turn away the (H)stranger from justice and do not [d]fear Me,” says the Lord of armies. 6 “For [e]I, the Lord, (I)do not change; therefore you, the sons of Jacob, have not come to an end.
