1"For behold<2009>, the day<3117> is coming<935>, burning<1197> like a furnace<8574>; and all<3605> the arrogant<2086> and every<3605> evildoer<6213><7564> will be chaff<7179>; and the day<3117> that is coming<935> will set<3857> them ablaze<3857>," says<559> the LORD<3068> of hosts<6635>, "so<834> that it will leave<5800> them neither<3808> root<8328> nor<3808> branch<6057>."
2"But for you who fear<3372> My name<8034>, the sun<8121> of righteousness<6666> will rise<2224> with healing<4832> in its wings<3671>; and you will go<3318> forth<3318> and skip<6335> about<6335> like calves<5695> from the stall<4770>.
3"You will tread<6072> down<6072> the wicked<7563>, for they will be ashes<665> under<8478> the soles<3709> of your feet<7272> on the day<3117> which<834> I am preparing<6213>," says<559> the LORD<3068> of hosts<6635>.
4"Remember<2142> the law<8451> of Moses<4872> My servant<5650>, even the statutes<2706> and ordinances<4941> which<834> I commanded<6680> him in Horeb<2722> for all<3605> Israel<3478>.
5"Behold<2009>, I am going to send<7971> you Elijah<452> the prophet<5030> before<6440> the coming<935> of the great<1419> and terrible<3372> day<3117> of the LORD<3068>.
6"He will restore<7725> the hearts<3820> of the fathers<1> to their children<1121> and the hearts<3820> of the children<1121> to their fathers<1>, so<6435> that I will not come<935> and smite<5221> the land<776> with a curse<2764>."
