Malachi 1 memorization

the burden of the word of the LORD

to Israel

by the hand of Malachi

מַשָּׂ֥א דְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה	maśśāʾ ḏᵊḇar-YHWH
אֶל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל	ʾel-yiśrāʾēl
בְּיַ֖ד מַלְאָכִֽי׃	bᵊ-yaḏ malʾāḵî

I have loved you

says the LORD

and you say

“How have you loved us?”

אָהַ֤בְתִּי אֶתְכֶם֙	ʾāhaḇtî ʾeṯ-ḵem
אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה	ʾāmar YHWH
וַאֲמַרְתֶּ֖ם	wa-ʾămartem
בַּמָּ֣ה אֲהַבְתָּ֑נוּ	ba-mmâ ʾăhaḇtā-nû

Is esau not a brother to jacob?

declares the LORD

yet I loved Jacob

הֲלוֹא־אָ֨ח עֵשָׂ֤ו לְיַֽעֲקֹב֙	hă-lôʾ-ʾāḥ ʿēśāw lᵊ-yaʿăqōḇ
נְאֻם־יְהוָ֔ה	nᵊʾum-YHWH
וָאֹהַ֖ב אֶֽת־יַעֲקֹֽב׃	wā-ʾōhaḇ ʾeṯ-yaʿăqōḇ

but Esau I hated

and I made his mountains a desolation

and his inheritance for the jackals of the wilderness

וְאֶת־עֵשָׂ֖ו שָׂנֵ֑אתִי	wᵊ-ʾeṯ-ʿēśāw śānēʾṯî
וָאָשִׂ֤ים אֶת־הָרָיו֙ שְׁמָמָ֔ה	wā-ʾāśîm ʾeṯ-hārāy-w šᵊmāmâ
וְאֶת־נַחֲלָת֖וֹ לְתַנּ֥וֹת מִדְבָּֽר׃	wᵊ-ʾeṯ-naḥălāṯ-wō lᵊ-ṯannôṯ miḏbār

Though Edom says

“We are shattered”

“but we will return and rebuild the ruins”

כִּֽי־תֹאמַ֨ר אֱד֜וֹם	kî-ṯōʾmar ʾĕḏôm
רֻשַּׁ֗שְׁנוּ	ruššašnû
וְנָשׁוּב֙ וְנִבְנֶ֣ה חֳרָב֔וֹת	wᵊ-nāšûḇ wᵊ-niḇneh ḥŏrāḇôṯ

thus says the LORD of hosts

they may build, but I will tear down

and they will call them “the territory of wickedness”

and “the people the LORD has cursed forever”

כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת	kōh ʾāmar YHWH ṣᵊḇāʾôṯ
הֵ֥מָּה יִבְנ֖וּ וַאֲנִ֣י אֶהֱר֑וֹס	hēmmâ yiḇnû wa-ʾănî ʾehĕrôs
וְקָרְא֤וּ לָהֶם֙ גְּב֣וּל רִשְׁעָ֔ה	wᵊ-qārᵊʾû lā-hem gᵊḇûl rišʿâ
וְהָעָ֛ם אֲשֶׁר־זָעַ֥ם יְהוָ֖ה עַד־עוֹלָֽם׃	wᵊ-hā-ʿām ʾăšer-zāʿam YHWH ʿaḏ-ʿôlām

your own eyes will see

and you will say

“The LORD is great”

beyond the border of Israel

וְעֵינֵיכֶ֖ם תִּרְאֶ֑ינָה	wᵊ-ʿênê-ḵem tirʾênâ
וְאַתֶּ֤ם תֹּֽאמְרוּ֙	wᵊ-ʾattem tōʾmᵊrû
יִגְדַּ֣ל יְהוָ֔ה	yiḡdal YHWH
מֵעַ֖ל לִגְב֥וּל יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃	mē-ʿal li-ḡᵊḇûl yiśrāʾēl

a son honors a father

and a servant his master

so if I am a father, where is my honor?

and if I am a master, where is my reverence?

says the LORD of hosts to you

בֵּ֛ן יְכַבֵּ֥ד אָ֖ב	bēn yᵊḵabbēḏ ʾāḇ
וְעֶ֣בֶד אֲדֹנָ֑יו	wᵊ-ʿeḇeḏ ʾăḏōnāy-w
וְאִם־אָ֣ב אָ֣נִי אַיֵּ֣ה כְבוֹדִ֡י	wᵊ-ʾim-ʾāḇ ʾānî ʾayyēh ḵᵊḇôḏi-y
וְאִם־אֲדוֹנִ֣ים אָנִי֩ אַיֵּ֨ה מוֹרָאִ֜י	wᵊ-ʾim-ʾăḏônîm ʾānî ʾayyēh môrāʾi-y
אָמַ֣ר׀ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֗וֹת לָכֶם֙	ʾāmar YHWH ṣᵊḇāʾôṯ lā-ḵem

O priests, who despise my name

and you say, “How have we despised your name?”

you offer defiled food on my altar

הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ בּוֹזֵ֣י שְׁמִ֔י	ha-kkōhănîm bôzê šᵊmi-y
וַאֲמַרְתֶּ֕ם בַּמֶּ֥ה בָזִ֖ינוּ אֶת־שְׁמֶֽךָ׃	wa-ʾămartem ba-mmeh ḇāzînû ʾeṯ-šᵊme-ḵā
מַגִּישִׁ֤ים עַֽל־מִזְבְּחִי֙ לֶ֣חֶם מְגֹאָ֔ל	maggîšîm ʿal-mizbᵊḥi-y leḥem mᵊḡōʾāl

and you say, “How have we defiled you?”

by your saying, “The LORD’s table is contemptible”

when you offer a blind animal for sacrifice

וַאֲמַרְתֶּ֖ם בַּמֶּ֣ה גֵֽאַלְנ֑וּךָ	wa-ʾămartem ba-mmeh ḡēʾalnû-ḵā
בֶּאֱמָרְכֶ֕ם שֻׁלְחַ֥ן יְהוָ֖ה נִבְזֶ֥ה הֽוּא׃	be-ʾĕmārᵊ-ḵem šulḥan YHWH niḇzeh hûʾ
וְכִֽי־תַגִּשׁ֨וּן עִוֵּ֤ר לִזְבֹּ֨חַ֙	wᵊ-ḵî-ṯaggišû-n ʿiwwēr li-zᵊḇōaḥ

“There’s nothing wrong”

and when you offer a lame or sick one

“There’s nothing wrong”

אֵ֣ין רָ֔ע	ʾên rāʿ
וְכִ֥י תַגִּ֛ישׁוּ פִּסֵּ֥חַ וְחֹלֶ֖ה	wᵊ-ḵî ṯaggîšû pissēaḥ wᵊ-ḥōleh
אֵ֣ין רָ֑ע	ʾên rāʿ

present it to your governor

will he accept you, or show you favor?

says the LORD of hosts

הַקְרִיבֵ֨הוּ נָ֜א לְפֶחָתֶ֗ךָ	haqrîḇē-hû nāʾ lᵊ-p̄eḥāṯe-ḵā
הֲיִּרְצְךָ֙ א֚וֹ הֲיִשָּׂ֣א פָנֶ֔יךָ	hă-yyirṣᵊ-ḵā ʾô hă-yiśśāʾ p̄ānê-ḵā
אָמַ֖ר יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֽוֹת׃	ʾāmar YHWH ṣᵊḇāʾôṯ
