"And now
this
commandment
is for you, O priests.
2
"If
you do not listen,
and if
you do not take
it to heart
to give
honor
to My name,"
says
the LORD
of hosts,
"then I will send
the curse
upon you and I will curse
your blessings;
and indeed,
I have cursed
them already, because
you are not taking
it to heart
.
3
"Behold,
I am going to rebuke
your offspring,
and I will spread
refuse
on your faces,
the
refuse
of your feasts;
and you will be taken
away with it.
4
"Then you will know
that I have sent
this
commandment
to you, that My covenant
may continue
with Levi,"
says
the LORD
of hosts.
5
"My covenant
with him was one of life
and peace,
and I gave
them to him as an object of reverence;
so he revered
Me and stood in awe
of My name.
6
"True
instruction
was in his mouth
and unrighteousness
was not found
on his lips;
he walked
with Me in peace
and uprightness,
and he turned
many
back
from iniquity.
7
"For the lips
of a priest
should preserve
knowledge,
and men should seek
instruction
from his mouth;
for he is the messenger
of the LORD
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
the LORD
of hosts.
9
"So I also
have made
you despised
and abased
before all
the people,
just
as you are not keeping
My ways
but are showing partiality
in the instruction.
10
"Do we not all
have one
father?
Has not one
God
created
us? Why
do we deal treacherously
each
against his brother
so as to profane
the covenant
of our fathers?
11
"Judah
has dealt treacherously,
and an abomination
has been committed
in Israel
and in Jerusalem;
for Judah
has profaned
the sanctuary
of the LORD
which
He loves
and has married
the daughter
of a foreign
god.
12
"As for the man
who
does
this, may the LORD
cut off
from the tents
of Jacob
everyone
who
awakes
and answers,
or
who
presents
an offering
to the LORD
of hosts.
13
"This
is another thing
you do:
you cover
the altar
of the LORD
with tears,
with weeping
and with groaning,
because
He no
longer
regards
the offering
or accepts
it with favor
from your hand.
14
"Yet you say,
'For what
reason?'
Because
the LORD
has been a witness
between
you and the wife
of your youth,
against whom
you have dealt treacherously,
though she is your companion
and your wife
by covenant.
15
"But not one
has done
so who has a remnant
of the Spirit.
And what
did that one
do while he was seeking
a godly
offspring?
Take heed
then to your spirit,
and let no
one deal treacherously
against the wife
of your youth.
16
"For I hate
divorce,"
says
the LORD
,
the God
of Israel,
"and him who covers
his garment
with wrong,"
says
the LORD
of hosts.
"So take heed
to your spirit,
that you do not deal treacherously."
17
You have wearied
the LORD
with your words.
Yet you say,
"How
have we wearied
Him?" In that you say,
"Everyone
who does
evil
is good
in the sight
of
the LORD
,
and He delights
in them," or,
"Where
is the God
of justice?"
