9“Now plead with God to be gracious to us. With such offerings from your hands, will he accept you?”—says the Lord Almighty.

9“But now, do indeed plead for God’s favor, so that He will be gracious to us. 1:9 Lit This has been from your handWith such an offering on your part, will He receive any of you kindly?” says the Lord of armies.

9“But now will you not entreat God’s favor, that He may be gracious to us? With such an offering on your part, will He receive any of you kindly?” says the Lord of hosts.

9“But now will you not entreat God’s favor, that He may be gracious to us? With such an offering from your hand [as an imperfect animal for sacrifice], will He show favor to any of you?” says the Lord of hosts.

9“But ask now for God’s favor. Will He be gracious? Since this has come from your hands, will He show you favor?” asks the Lord of Hosts.

9“Now plead with God to be gracious to us! But as long as you give offerings like those, how can he accept you?” says the Lord.
