Malachi 2:2-4
New Life Version
2 If you do not listen, and if you do not set your heart to honor My name,” says the Lord of All, “then I will send the curse on you. I will destroy the good things you have been given. Yes, I have cursed them already, because you have not set your heart to honor Me. 3 I will speak sharp words to your children. I will spread animal waste on your faces, the waste of your special suppers. And you will be taken away with it. 4 Then you will know that I have sent this word to you, so that My agreement with Levi may be kept,” says the Lord of All.
