Malachi 3:13 Context
11And I wil rebuke the deuourer for your sakes: and he shal not destroy the fruits of your ground, neither shal your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts. 12And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the Lord of hosts. 13¶ Your words haue bin stout against me, saith the Lord, yet ye say, What haue we spoken so much against thee? 14Ye haue said, It is vaine to serue God: and what profit is it, that we haue kept his ordinance, and that wee haue walked mournfully before the Lord of hosts? 15And now we call the proud happy: yea, they that worke wickednes are set vp, yea they that tempt God, are euen deliuered.
