Malachi 2:1-3

Good News Translation

2 The Lord Almighty says to the priests, “This command is for you: ² You must honor me by what you do. If you will not listen to what I say, then I will bring a curse on you. I will put a curse on the things you receive for your support. In fact, I have already put a curse on them, because you do not take my command seriously. ³ I will punish your children and rub your faces in the dung of the animals you sacrifice—and you will be taken out to the dung heap.
