Ye said H559 (QalPerf) also, Behold, what a weariness H4972 [is it]! and ye have snuffed H5301 (HiphPerf) at it, saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H3068 of hosts; H6635 and ye brought H935 (HiphPerf) [that which was] torn, H1497 (QalPasPtc) and the lame, H6455 and the sick; H2470 (QalActPtc) thus ye brought H935 (HiphPerf) an offering: H4503 should I accept H7521 (QalImpf) this of your hand? H3027 saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord. H3068
