New American Standard Bible

⁸But as for you, you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to ^(A)stumble ^[a]by the instruction; you have ^(B)ruined the covenant of Levi,” says the Lord of armies. ⁹“So ^(C)I also have made you despised and of ^(D)low reputation ^[b]in the view of all the people, since you are not keeping My ways but are showing ^(E)partiality in the ^[c]instruction.”

¹⁰Do we not all have ^(F)one Father? ^(G)Is it not one God who has created us? Why do we deal ^(H)treacherously, each against his brother so as to profane the ^(I)covenant of our fathers?
