men:

man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn

God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father,

me I will honour, and they that
despise me shall be lightly esteemed.

Wherein have we despised thy name? v7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar;
and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the Lord is contemptible. v8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it

suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with
it.
