Malachi 2:5-7

New Life Version

⁵ “My agreement with him was one of life and peace, and I gave them to him, that he might honor Me with fear. So he honored Me with fear. My name filled him with fear and wonder. ⁶ True teaching was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with Me in peace and was right and good. And he turned many from sin. ⁷ For the lips of a religious leader should have much learning. Men should listen for teaching from his mouth, for he is sent by the Lord of All.
