7 Even from the days of your fathers you2f are gone away from my ordinances, and have not kept [them]. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, says the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]. But you2f said, Wherein shall we return?
8 Will a man rob God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]? Yet you2f have robbed me. But you2f say, Wherein have we robbed youi? In tithes and offerings.
9 You2f [are] cursed with a curse: for you2f have robbed me, [even] this whole nation.
10 Bring you2f all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and prove me now with this, says the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies], if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].
11 And I will rebuke (reprimand; strongly warn; restrain) the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, says the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies].
