Malachi 2:3-5

Modern English Version

³ I rebuke your descendants, and spread refuse on your faces, the refuse of your solemn feasts, and you will be taken away with it. ⁴ And you will know that I have sent this command to you, that My covenant with Levi may remain, says the Lord of Hosts. ⁵ My covenant with him was for life and peace, and I gave them to him. With awe he feared Me, and he was reverent before My name.
