Malachi 4

1 #Malachi 4:1–6 in the English Bible is 3:19–24 in the Hebrew Bible “For look! The day is about to come, burning like an oven, and all the arrogant and every evildoer#Literally “doer of wickedness” will be stubble. The coming day will consume#Or “devour” them,” says Yahweh of hosts. “It will not leave behind for them root or branch. 2But for you who revere#Or “fear” my name, the sun of righteousness will rise, with healing in its wings, and you will go out and leap like fattened calves.#Literally “bull-calves of the animal stall” (on the idiom see HALOT 631 s.v.) 3You will trample down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I am going to act,” says Yahweh of hosts.
4“Remember the instruction#Or “law”; Hebrew torah of my servant Moses, which I commanded him at Horeb to all Israel, the rules and regulations. 5Look! I am going to send to you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome day of Yahweh! 6And he will bring back#Or “And he will restore” the hearts of the fathers to the sons, and the hearts of the sons to their fathers, so that I will not come and strike the land with a ban.”

Malachi 4

The Day of the LORD is Coming
1The LORD Almighty says, “The day is coming when all proud and evil people will burn like straw. On that day they will burn up, and there will be nothing left of them. 2But for you who obey me, my saving power will rise on you like the sun and bring healing like the sun's rays. You will be as free and happy as calves let out of a stall. 3On the day when I act, you will overcome the wicked, and they will be like dust under your feet.
4“Remember the teachings of my servant Moses, the laws and commands which I gave him at Mount Sinai for all the people of Israel to obey.
