CHAPTER 4
“For
behold,
the day
is coming,
burning
like a furnace,
when all
the arrogant
and every
evildoer
will be
stubble;
the day
is coming
when I will set them ablaze,”
says
the LORD
of Hosts.
“Not
a root
or branch
will be left
to them.”
“But for you who fear
My name,
the sun
of righteousness
will rise
with healing
in its wings,
and you will go out
and leap
like calves
from the stall.
Then you will trample
the wicked,
for
they will be
ashes
under
the soles
of your feet
on the day
I
am preparing,”
says
the LORD
of Hosts.
“Remember
the Law
of Moses
My servant,
the statutes
and ordinances
I commanded
him
for
all
Israel
at Horeb.
Behold,
I
will send
you
Elijah
the prophet
before
the coming
of the great
and dreadful
Day
of the LORD.
And he will turn
the hearts
of the fathers
to
their children,
and the hearts
of the children
to
their fathers.
Otherwise,
I will come
and strike
the land
with a curse.”
