    1AND now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you.

    2If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.

    3Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.

    4And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.

    5My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.

    6The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

    7For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts.
