8 Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed me. But you say, How have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings.
9 You are cursed with a curse: for you have robbed me, even this whole nation.
10 Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this,
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field,
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for you shall be a delightful land,
13 Your words have been strong against me,
14 You have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked in mourning before the LORD of hosts?
