Malachi 1:11

כִּ֣י מִמִּזְרַח־שֶׁ֜מֶשׁ וְעַד־מְבֹואֹ֗ו גָּדֹ֤ול שְׁמִי֙ בַּגֹּויִ֔ם וּבְכָל־מָקֹ֗ום מֻקְטָ֥ר מֻגָּ֛שׁ לִשְׁמִ֖י וּמִנְחָ֣ה טְהֹורָ֑ה כִּֽי־גָדֹ֤ול שְׁמִי֙ בַּגֹּויִ֔ם אָמַ֖ר יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֹֽות׃

For from the rising of the sun and unto its going great is my name among the nations, and in every place incense is burned, it is brought near to my name, even a pure offering. For great is my name among the nations,” says YHWH of Hosts.
