[1] "For behold, the day comes, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant
and all evildoers will be stubble; the day that comes shall burn them up,
says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.
[2] But for you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with
healing in its wings. You shall go forth 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, on the day when I act, says the LORD of
hosts. [4] "Remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and
ordinances that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel. [5] "Behold, I
will send you Eli'jah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the
LORD comes. [6] And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children
and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land
with a curse."
