Malachi 3:3 in part

וְיָשַׁ֨ב מְצָרֵ֤ף וּמְטַהֵר֙ כֶּ֔סֶף וְטִהַ֤ר אֶת־בְּנֵֽי־לֵוִי֙ וְזִקַּ֣ק אֹתָ֔ם כַּזָּהָ֖ב וְכַכָּ֑סֶף וְהָיוּ֙ לַֽיהוָ֔ה מַגִּישֵׁ֥י מִנְחָ֖ה בִּצְדָקָֽה		3 [And he will sit as refiner and cleaner of silver.] And he will clean the children of Levi, [and purge them as gold and as silver,] that they might become for Yahweh those who come close with a gift in righteousness.

Note how the recitative following the pause continues on the subdominant, the rest note. Note that my glosses do not match the traditional offer of offerings. That's because the words are not zbk (offer) but come close (ngw) with a gift (mnkh). For a set of the words relating to offering etc, see the search by gloss on my concordance site and find the word offer or sacrifice.

I have an imagined reconstruction of how the music was written down here.
