Malachi 2:7-9 ▼

7 For the lips of a priest should keep knowledge, and men should seek instruction from his mouth; for he is the messenger of Yahweh of hosts.

8 But as for you, you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to stumble by the instruction; you have corrupted the covenant of Levi,” says Yahweh of hosts.

9 “So I also have made you despised and low before all the people, just as you are not keeping My ways but are showing partiality in the instruction.
