Maleachi 4
BasisBijbel
God beloont de mensen die leven zoals Hij het wil (vervolg)
4 Let op, die dag komt eraan! Die dag zal zijn als een gloeiendhete oven! Alle trotse en slechte mensen zullen op die dag als droog gras verbranden. Er zal niets van hen overblijven, zegt de Heer van de hemelse legers. 2 Maar júllie hadden ontzag voor Mij. Jullie zullen worden beloond. Voor jullie zal er genezing zijn bij de Heer. Jullie zullen naar buiten gaan en dansen en springen als jonge kalfjes die de stal uit mogen. 3 Op die dag zullen jullie de slechte mensen vertrappen tot stof onder jullie voeten, zegt de Heer van de hemelse legers.
4 Houd je aan de wet van mijn dienaar Mozes. Op de berg Horeb gaf Ik hem mijn wetten en leefregels voor het hele volk Israël. 5 Let op, vóórdat deze grote en verschrikkelijke dag van mijn straf komt, stuur Ik de profeet Elia naar jullie toe. 6 Door hem zullen de vaders hun hart weer openen voor hun kinderen. Door hem zullen de kinderen weer willen luisteren naar hun vaders. Dan zal Ik de aarde niet hoeven te vernietigen."
Malachi 4
New King James Version
The Great Day of God
4 “For behold, (A)the day is coming,
Burning like an oven,
And all (B)the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be (C)stubble.
And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“That will (D)leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But to you who (E)fear My name
The (F)Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
3 (G)You 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 (H)Law of Moses, My servant,
Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,
With (I)the statutes and judgments.
5 Behold, I will send you (J)Elijah the prophet
(K)Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
6 And (L)he will turn
The hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers,
Lest I come and (M)strike the earth with (N)a curse.”
Malachi 4
English Standard Version
The Great Day of the Lord
4 [a] “For behold, (A)the day is coming, (B)burning like an oven, when (C)all the arrogant and (D)all evildoers (E)will be stubble. The day that is coming (F)shall set them ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. 2 But for you (G)who fear my name, (H)the sun (I)of righteousness shall rise (J)with healing in its wings. You shall go out (K)leaping like calves from the stall. 3 And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, (L)on the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts.
4 (M)“Remember (N)the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules[b] that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.
5 (O)“Behold, I will send you (P)Elijah the prophet (Q)before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 6 And he will (R)turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and (S)strike the land with a decree of utter destruction.”[c]
