A Great King

12“But you are profaning my name by saying, ‘The Lord’s table is defiled, and the food it provides is contemptible.’”

13“You say, ‘What a weariness this is!’ and you snort at it,” says Yahweh of Armies. “You bring stolen, lame, and sick animals; this is what you present as your offering. Should I accept it from your hands?” says Yahweh.

14“But cursed is the deceiver who has a male animal in his flock and vows it, but sacrifices a blemished animal to the Lord. For I am a great King,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and my name is feared among the nations.”
