Malachi 1:1 BBE

¹  The word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi.

²  You have been loved by me, says the Lord. But you say, Where was your love for us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says the Lord: but Jacob was loved by me,

³  And Esau was hated, and I sent destruction on his mountains, and gave his heritage to the beasts of the waste land.
