[1] For see, the day is coming, it is burning like an oven; all the men of
pride and all who do evil will be dry stems of grass: and in the day which
is coming they will be burned up, says the Lord of armies, till they have
not a root or a branch. [2] But to you who give worship to my name, the sun
of righteousness will come up with new life in its wings; and you will go
out, playing like young oxen full of food. [3] And the evil-doers will be
crushed under you, they will be dust under your feet, in the day when I do
my work, says the Lord of armies. [4] Keep in mind the law of Moses, my
servant, which I gave him in Horeb for all Israel, even the rules and the
decisions. [5] See, I am sending you Elijah the prophet before the day of
the Lord comes, that great day, greatly to be feared. [6] And by him the
hearts of fathers will be turned to their children, and the hearts of
children to their fathers; for fear that I may come and put the earth under
a curse.
