Malachi 1:11

The Polluted Offerings

10“Oh, that one of you would shut the temple doors, so that you would no longer kindle useless fires on My altar! I take no pleasure in you,” says the LORD of Hosts, “and I will accept no offering from your hands.11For My name will be great among the nations, from where the sun rises to where it sets. In every place, incense and pure offerings will be presented in My name, because My name will be great among the nations,” says the LORD of Hosts.12“But you profane it when you say, ‘The table of the Lord is defiled, and as for its fruit, its food is contemptible.’
