Malachi 2:5-7
5“My covenantH1285 with him was one of lifeH2425 and 1peaceH7965, and I gaveH5414 them to him as an object of 2reverenceH4172; so he 34reveredH3372 Me and wasH2865 inH2865 aweH2865 of My nameH8034.
656TrueH571 instructionH8451 was in his mouthH6310 and injusticeH5767 was not foundH4672 on his lipsH8193; he walkedH1980 7with Me in peaceH7965 and justiceH4334, and he 8turnedH7725 manyH7227 backH7725 from wrongdoingH5771.
7For the lipsH8193 of a priestH3548 should maintainH8104 9knowledgeH1847, and people should 10seekH1245 11instructionH8451 from his mouthH6310; for he is the 12messengerH4397 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635.
