rsv Malachi:2:7-9
rsv@Malachi:2:7 @ For the lips of a priest should guard knowledge, and men should seek instruction from his mouth, for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
rsv@Malachi:2:8 @ But you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to stumble by your instruction; you have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says the LORD of hosts,
rsv@Malachi:2:9 @ and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, inasmuch as you have not kept my ways but have shown partiality in your instruction."
