Malachi 4— RSV

1"For behold, the day comes, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble; the day that comes shall burn them up, says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

2But for you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings. You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall.

3And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the LORD of hosts.

4"Remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and ordinances that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.

5"Behold, I will send you Eli'jah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes.

6And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse."
