Malachi 2:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ The true law was in his mouth, and no injustice was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness. He turned many away from guilt. ⁷ The lips of a priest should be guardians of knowledge, and people should seek instruction from his mouth because he is a messenger of the Lord of Armies.

⁸ But you priests have turned from the way. You have made many people stumble in regard to the law.^[a] You have ruined the covenant with Levi, says the Lord of Armies.
