Malachi 2:7-9
7For the lipsH8193 of a priestH3548 should maintainH8104 1knowledgeH1847, and people should 2seekH1245 3instructionH8451 from his mouthH6310; for he is the 4messengerH4397 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635. 8But as for you, you have turnedH5493 asideH5493 from the wayH1870; you have caused manyH7227 to 5stumbleH3782 6by the instructionH8451; you have 7ruinedH7843 the covenantH1285 of LeviH3878,” saysH559 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635. 9“So 8I alsoH1571 have madeH5414 you despisedH959 and of 9lowH8217 reputationH8217 10in the view of allH3605 the peopleH5971, sinceH6310H834 you are not keepingH8104 My waysH1870 but are showingH5375 11partialityH5375H6440 in the 12instructionH8451.”
