| 8 | Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me. But you say, `How are we robbing thee?' In your tithes and offerings. |
| 9 | You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me; the whole nation of you. |
| 10 | Bring the full tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house; and thereby put me to the test, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you an overflowing blessing. |
