Malachi 2:2-4

Living Bible

2 ^1-2 Listen, you priests, to this warning from the Lord Almighty:

“If you don’t change your ways and give glory to my name, then I will send terrible punishment upon you, and instead of giving you blessings as I would like to, I will turn on you with curses. Indeed, I have cursed you already because you haven’t taken seriously the things that are most important to me.

³ “Take note that I will rebuke your children; I will spread on your faces the manure of these animals you offer me and throw you out like dung. ⁴ Then at last you will know it was I who sent you this warning to return to the laws I gave your father Levi,” says the Lord Almighty.
