Malachi 4
4
1For, lo, the day hath come, burning as a furnace, And all the proud, and every wicked doer, have been stubble, And burnt them hath the day that came, Said Jehovah of Hosts, That there is not left to them root or branch,
2And risen to you, ye who fear My name, Hath the sun of righteousness — and healing in its wings, And ye have gone forth, and have increased as calves of a stall.
3And ye have trodden down the wicked, For they are ashes under the soles of your feet, In the day that I am appointing, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
4Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, That I did command him in Horeb, For all Israel — statutes and judgments.
5Lo, I am sending to you Elijah the prophet, Before the coming of the day of Jehovah, The great and the fearful.
6And he hath turned back the heart of fathers to sons, And the heart of sons to their fathers, Before I come and have utterly smitten the land!

2“But for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings.#4:2 Or the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture. 3On the day when I act, you will tread upon the wicked as if they were dust under your feet,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
4“Remember to obey the Law of Moses, my servant—all the decrees and regulations that I gave him on Mount Sinai#4:4 Hebrew Horeb, another name for Sinai. for all Israel.
5“Look, I am sending you the prophet Elijah before the great and dreadful day of the Lord arrives. 6His preaching will turn the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers. Otherwise I will come and strike the land with a curse.”
