Malachi 2:4-6

4 So shall you know that I have sent ^athis command to you, that ^bmy covenant with Levi may stand, says the Lord of hosts. 5 My covenant with him was one of life and ^cpeace, and I gave them to him. ^dIt was a covenant of fear, and he feared me. He stood in awe of my name. 6 ^eTrue instruction ^{▼▼Or law; also verses 7, 8, 9} was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he ^gturned many from iniquity.
