- 眾祭司阿、這誡命是傳給你們的。
- 萬軍之耶和華說、你們若不聽從、也不放在心上、將榮耀歸與我的名、我就使咒詛臨到你們、使你們的福分變為咒詛.因你們不把誡命放在心上、我已經咒詛你們了。
- 我必斥責你們的種子、又把你們犧牲的糞、抹在你們的臉上.你們要與糞一同除掉。
- 你們就知道我傳這誡命給你們、使我與利未〔或作利未人〕所立的約、可以常存.這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
- 我曾與他立生命和平安的約.我將這兩樣賜給他、使他存敬畏的心、他就敬畏我、懼怕我的名。

- "And now this admonition is for you, O priests.
- If you do not listen, and if you do not set your heart to honor my name," says the LORD Almighty, "I will send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings. Yes, I have already cursed them, because you have not set your heart to honor me.
- "Because of you I will rebuke your descendants ; I will spread on your faces the offal from your festival sacrifices, and you will be carried off with it.
- And you will know that I have sent you this admonition so that my covenant with Levi may continue," says the LORD Almighty.
- "My covenant was with him, a covenant of life and peace, and I gave them to him; this called for reverence and he revered me and stood in awe of my name.
