World English Bible Public Domain
They won't pour out wine offerings to Yahweh, Neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; All who eat of it will be polluted; For their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into the house of Yahweh.

King James Version Public Domain
They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.

They will not pour out wine to Yahweh, and their sacrifices will not be pleasing to him; like bread of mourning to them; all the eaters of it will be defiled. For their bread be for their appetite; it will not enter the house of Yahweh.
