[8] Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein
have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
[9] Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this
whole nation.
[10] Bring ye all the tithes into , that there may be meat in mine house, and prove
me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, 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 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, saith the LORD of hosts.
[12] And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome
land, saith the LORD of hosts.
