Malachi 2:6-8
Contemporary English Version
6 He taught the truth and never told lies, and he led a lot of people to turn from sin, because he obeyed me and lived right.
7 You priests should be eager to spread knowledge, and everyone should come to you for instruction, because you speak for me, the Lord All-Powerful. 8 But you have turned your backs on me. Your teachings have led others to do sinful things, and you have broken the agreement I made with your ancestor Levi.

Malachi 2:6-8
New International Version
6 True instruction(A) was in his mouth and nothing false was found on his lips. He walked(B) with me in peace(C) and uprightness,(D) and turned many from sin.(E)
7 “For the lips of a priest(F) ought to preserve knowledge, because he is the messenger(G) of the Lord Almighty and people seek instruction from his mouth.(H) 8 But you have turned from the way(I) and by your teaching have caused many to stumble;(J) you have violated the covenant(K) with Levi,”(L) says the Lord Almighty.
