1

And now, O ye priests, [3548] this commandment [4687] [is] for you.

2

If ye will not hear, [8085] and if ye will not lay [7760] [it] to heart, [3820] to give [5414] glory [3519] unto my name, [8034] saith [0559] the LORD [3068] of hosts, [6635] I will even send [7971] a curse [3994] upon you, and I will curse [0779] your blessings: [1293] yea, I have cursed [0779] them already, because ye do not lay [7760] [it] to heart. [3820]

3

Behold, I will corrupt [1605] your seed, [2233] and spread [2219] dung [6569] upon your faces, [6440] [even] the dung [6569] of your solemn feasts; [2282] and [one] shall take [5375] you away with it.

4

And ye shall know [3045] that I have sent [7971] this commandment [4687] unto you, that my covenant [1285] might be with Levi, [3878] saith [0559] the LORD [3068] of hosts. [6635]

5

My covenant [1285] was with him of life [2416] and peace; [7965] and I gave [5414] them to him [for] the fear [4172] wherewith he feared [3372] me, and was afraid [2865] before [6440] my name. [8034]

6

The law [8451] of truth [0571] was in his mouth, [6310] and iniquity [5766] was not found [4672] in his lips: [8193] he walked [1980] with me in peace [7965] and equity, [4334] and did turn many [7227] away [7725] from iniquity. [5771]

7

For the priest's [3548] lips [8193] should keep [8104] knowledge, [1847] and they should seek [1245] the law [8451] at his mouth: [6310] for he [is] the messenger [4397] of the LORD [3068] of hosts. [6635]

8

But ye are departed [5493] out of the way; [1870] ye have caused many [7227] to stumble [3782] at the law; [8451] ye have corrupted [7843] the covenant [1285] of Levi, [3878] saith [0559] the LORD [3068] of hosts. [6635]

9

Therefore have I also made [5414] you contemptible [0959] and base [8217] before all the people, [5971] according [6310] as ye have not kept [8104] my ways, [1870] but have been [5375] partial [6440] in the law. [8451]

10

Have we not all one [0259] father? [0001] hath not one [0259] God [0410] created [1254] us? why do we deal treacherously [0898] every man [0376] against his brother, [0251] by profaning [2490] the covenant [1285] of our fathers? [0001]

11

Judah [3063] hath dealt treacherously, [0898] and an abomination [8441] is committed [6213] in Israel [3478] and in Jerusalem; [3389] for Judah [3063] hath profaned [2490] the holiness [6944] of the LORD [3068] which he loved, [0157] and hath married [1166] the daughter [1323] of a strange [5236] god. [0410]

12

The LORD [3068] will cut off [3772] the man [0376] that doeth [6213] this, the master [5782] and the scholar, [6030] out of the tabernacles [0168] of Jacob, [3290] and him that offereth [5066] an offering [4503] unto the LORD [3068] of hosts. [6635]

13

And this have ye done [6213] again, [8145] covering [3680] the altar [4196] of the LORD [3068] with tears, [1832] with weeping, [1065] and with crying out, [0603] insomuch that he regardeth [6437] not the offering [4503] any more, or receiveth [3947] [it] with good will [7522] at your hand. [3027]

14

Yet ye say, [0559] Wherefore? [4100] Because the LORD [3068] hath been witness [5749] between thee and the wife [0802] of thy youth, [5271] against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: [0898] yet [is] she thy companion, [2278] and the wife [0802] of thy covenant. [1285]

15

And did not he make [6213] one? [0259] Yet had he the residue [7605] of the spirit. [7307] And wherefore one? [0259] That he might seek [1245] a godly [0430] seed. [2233] Therefore take heed [8104] to your spirit, [7307] and let none deal treacherously [0898] against the wife [0802] of his youth. [5271]

16

For the LORD, [3068] the God [0430] of Israel, [3478] saith [0559] that he hateth [8130] putting away: [7971] for [one] covereth [3680] violence [2555] with his garment, [3830] saith [0559] the LORD [3068] of hosts: [6635] therefore take heed [8104] to your spirit, [7307] that ye deal not treacherously. [0898]

17

Ye have wearied [3021] the LORD [3068] with your words. [1697] Yet ye say, [0559] Wherein have we wearied [3021] [him]? When ye say, [0559] Every one that doeth [6213] evil [7451] [is] good [2896] in the sight [5869] of the LORD, [3068] and he delighteth [2654] in them; or, Where [is] the God [0430] of judgment? [4941]
