Malachi 2:5 in Context — Malachi 2
3 Eis que eu repreenderei a vossa descendência, e espalharei lixo sobre os vossos rostos, o lixo de vossas festas, e com ele sereis removidos.
4 Então sabereis que eu vos enviei este mandamento, para que meu pacto seja com Levi,diz o SENHOR dos exércitos.
5 Meu pacto foi com ele de vida e de paz, as quais eu lhe dei para haver temor; e ele me temeu, e teve medo diante de meu nome.
6 A lei de verdade estava em sua boca, e não se achou injustiça em seus lábios; ele andava comigo em paz e em justiça, e converteu a muitos da maldade.
7 Porque os lábios do sacerdote devem guardar o conhecimento, e de sua boca devem buscar a lei; porque ele é mensageiro do SENHOR dos exércitos.
