O PRIESTS / MALACHI 2:1-4

(KJV) Malachi 2:1-4

And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. ² If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. ³ Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it. ⁴ And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.

One role of the priests was to pray God’s blessing on the people; but because the priest had corrupted the ministry God had given to them, their “blessings” had become useless curses. They did not honor God by proclaiming His message, and they disgraced His name by living ungodly lifestyles. Because of this, God would disgrace them and curse their ministry.
