Malachi 2:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² Listen to me. Pay attention to what I say. Honor my name,” says the Lord of heaven’s armies. “If you don’t, I will send a curse on you. I will curse your blessings. I have already cursed them because you don’t pay attention to what I say.

³ “I will punish your descendants. I will smear your faces with the garbage from your feasts. And you will be thrown away with it. ⁴ Then you will know why I am giving you this command. It is so that my agreement with Levi will continue,” says the Lord of heaven’s armies.
