Malachi 4

New Life Version

The Great Day of the Lord

4 “See, the day is coming. It is burning like a hot fire. And all those who are proud and those who do wrong will be like dry grass. The day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the Lord of All. “Not a root or branch will be left to them. ² But for you who fear My name, the sun of what is right and good will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go out and dance like calves from the cattle-house. ³ You will crush the sinful under foot. They will be ashes under your feet on the day when I do these things,” says the Lord of All.

⁴ “Remember the Law of My servant Moses. Remember all the Laws I gave him in Horeb for all Israel. ⁵ See, I will send you Elijah the man of God before the day of the Lord comes, that great day that will be full of much trouble. ⁶ And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Or else I will come and destroy the land with a curse.”
