Malachi 4
4
The Great Day of God
1“For behold, #Ps. 21:9; (Nah. 1:5, 6; Mal. 3:2, 3; 2 Pet. 3:7)the day is coming,
Burning like an oven,
And all #Mal. 3:18the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be #Is. 5:24; Obad. 18stubble.
And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“That will #Amos 2:9leave them neither root nor branch.
2But to you who #Mal. 3:16fear My name
The #Matt. 4:16; Luke 1:78; Acts 10:43; 2 Cor. 4:6; Eph. 5:14Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
3#Mic. 7:10You shall trample the wicked,
For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet
On the day that I do this,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
4“Remember the #Ex. 20:3Law of Moses, My servant,
Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,
With #Deut. 4:10the statutes and judgments.
5Behold, I will send you #(Matt. 11:14; 17:10–13; Mark 9:11–13; Luke 1:17); John 1:21Elijah the prophet
#Joel 2:31Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
6And he will turn
The hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers,
Lest I come and #Zech. 14:12strike the earth with #Zech. 5:3a curse.”

Final Admonition
1“For behold, the day is coming, burning like a furnace, and all the arrogant (proud, self-righteous, haughty), and every evildoer shall be stubble; and the day that is coming shall set them on fire,” says the Lord of hosts, “so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. 2But for you who fear My name [with awe-filled reverence] the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go forward and leap [joyfully] like calves [released] from the stall. 3You will trample the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I do this,” says the Lord of hosts.
4“Remember [with thoughtful concern] the Law of Moses My servant, the statutes and the ordinances which I commanded him on [Mount] Horeb [to give] to all Israel.
5“Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the Lord. 6He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers [a reconciliation produced by repentance], so that I will not come and strike the land with a curse [of complete destruction].”
