2. I have loved you," says the Lord. "Yet you say, 'In what way have You loved us?' Was not Esau Jacob's brother?" Says the Lord. "Yet Jacob I have loved;
3. But Esau I have hated, And laid waste his mountains and his heritage For the jackals of the wilderness."
4. Even though Edom has said, "We have been impoverished, But we will return and build the desolate places," Thus says the Lord of hosts: "They may build, but I will throw down; They shall be called the Territory of Wickedness, And the people against whom the Lord will have indignation forever.
6. A son honors his father, And a servant his master. If then I am the Father, Where is My honor? And if I am a Master, Where is My reverence? Says the Lord of hosts To you priests who despise My name. Yet you say, 'In what way have we despised Your name?'
7. You offer defiled food on My altar. But say, 'In what way have we defiled You?' By saying, 'The table of the Lord is contemptible.'
8. And when you offer the blind as a sacrifice, Is it not evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, Is it not evil? Offer it then to your governor! Would he be pleased with you? Would he accept you favorably?" Says the Lord of hosts.
9. But now entreat God's favor, That He may be gracious to us. While this is being done by your hands, Will He accept you favorably?" Says the Lord of hosts.
10. Who is there even among you who would shut the doors, So that you would not kindle fire on My altar in vain? I have no pleasure in you," Says the Lord of hosts, "Nor will I accept an offering from your hands.
11. For from the rising of the sun, even to its going down, My name shall be great among the Gentiles; In every place incense shall be offered to My name, And a pure offering; For My name shall be great among the nations," Says the Lord of hosts.
12. But you profane it, In that you say, 'The table of the Lord is defiled; And its fruit, its food, is contemptible.'
13. You also say, 'Oh, what a weariness!' And you sneer at it," Says the Lord of hosts. "And you bring the stolen, the lame, and the sick; Thus you bring an offering! Should I accept this from your hand?" Says the Lord.
14. But cursed be the deceiver Who has in his flock a male, And takes a vow, But sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished-- For I am a great King," Says the Lord of hosts, "And My name is to be feared among the nations.
There are certain important belongings you are forced to bring with you when holidaying in another country. Your passport is one example, along with credit or debit cards, cash and travel cheques. The problem arises when you get to your destination, as to what to do with these personal items. The hotel safe is the obvious choice, but are there any other options?
Pickpockets and petty theft can be a problem in many cities around the world, which means it can be a worry having to carry valuables on your person. There is a fine balance between bringing items with you and leaving them behind in the hotel safe. An even split between the two is probably the best. The items you carry with you should be kept in an interior pocket, preferably with a zip. If you’re using more than one memory card with your digital camera leave one with all the photos of your holiday so far, locked away in the hotel safe.
Most hotel rooms now have an in-room safe, however, these do not have the best of reputations. A far safer option would be to use the hotel office safe. The contents of in-room safes are very rarely covered under the hotel’s liability insurance, but the lobby or office safe will be covered. For any items you leave at the front desk, be sure you get a receipt.
It’s very likely you are going to have valuables that are far too cumbersome to be carried around all day. These can be locked into your carry-on luggage. Laptops or iPads are another item you might not want to carry with you at all times. Use a cable lock and attach one end to some heavy furniture in the hotel room.
Hanging this on your hotel room door handle will certainly put any would be intruders off. It will also mean you don’t get your room cleaned by the housekeeping staff. But this is a small price to pay for the safety and security of your belongings.
One reason why in-room safes are not used all that often is because holidaymakers are worried about leaving their belongings behind when checking out. One tip to overcome this problem is to attach a note to the inside of your hotel room door. It should be a reminder to check the safe before leaving. Alternatively, put it in one of your shoes.
The advice from the experts at Securesafe Ltd, is to always have a backup plan and to be prepared for the worst case scenario. Take copies of your credit and debit cards, passport, driving licence and tickets. Leave these back at home with a member of your family or scan them into your computer and save them on a storage cloud.
