4
1 “For behold, the day
comes, burning like a furnace, when all the proud and
all who work wickedness will be stubble. The day that comes will burn
them up,” says the LORD of Armies, “so that it will
leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But to you who fear my name
shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You
will go out and leap like calves of the stall.
3 You shall tread down the
wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day
that I make,” says the LORD of Armies.
4 “Remember the law of Moses my
servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even
statutes and ordinances.
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah
the prophet before the great and terrible day of the
LORD comes.
6 He will turn the hearts of the
fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to their
fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with
a curse.”
