12. May the Lord cut off from the man who does thisboth witness and advocate from the tents of Jacob,and anyone to bring an offering to the Lord of hosts!
13. This also you do: the altar of the Lord you coverwith tears, weeping, and groaning,Because the Lord no longer takes note of your offeringor accepts it favorably from your hand.
14. And you say, “Why?”—Because the Lord is witnessbetween you and the wife of your youthWith whom you have broken faith,though she is your companion, your covenanted wife.
