^22 (A)I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions,
And like a cloud, your sins.
Return to Me, for ^(B)I have redeemed you.”

¹⁹ He will again have compassion on us,
And will subdue our iniquities.

⁷ Yet from the days of ^(A)your fathers
You have gone away from My ordinances
And have not kept them.
^(B)Return to Me, and I will return to you,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
^(C)“But you said,
‘In what way shall we return?’

⁸ “Will a man rob God?
Yet you have robbed Me!
But you say,
‘In what way have we robbed You?’
^(D)In tithes and offerings.
⁹ You are cursed with a curse,
For you have robbed Me,
Even this whole nation.
^10 (E)Bring all the tithes into the ^(F)storehouse,
That there may be food in My house,
And try Me now in this,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“If I will not open for you the ^(G)windows of heaven
And ^(H)pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.
