Malachi 2:5-7
English Standard Version
5 My covenant with him was one of life and (A)peace, and I gave them to him. (B)It was a covenant of fear, and he feared me. He stood in awe of my name. 6 (C)True instruction[a] was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he (D)turned many from iniquity. 7 For (E)the lips of a priest should guard knowledge, and people[b] should seek instruction from his mouth, for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts.
