Malachi 2:10-12
New American Standard Bible
Sin in the Family
10 Do we not all have (A)one Father? (B)Is it not one God who has created us? Why do we deal (C)treacherously, each against his brother so as to profane the (D)covenant of our fathers? 11 Judah has dealt (E)treacherously, and an abomination has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah has (F)profaned the sanctuary of the Lord [a]which He loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god. 12 As for the man who does this, may the (G)Lord eliminate from the tents of Jacob everyone who is awake and answers, or who (H)presents [b]an offering to the Lord of armies.

Malachi 2:10-12
International Standard Version
A Plea and a Prayer from Malachi
10 Do we not have one father?[a] Has not one God created us? Why does each of us act deceitfully, each man against his own brother, to profane the covenant of our ancestors? 11 Judah has become unfaithful, and a detestable thing was committed in Israel and Jerusalem. Indeed, Judah profaned the Holy Place of the Lord, which he loves, and married a daughter of a foreign god. 12 May the Lord exclude from the community[b] of Jacob any man who does this, whoever he may be,[c] even though he brings offerings to the Lord of the Heavenly Armies.
