The Great Day of God

4 “For behold, the day is coming,Burning like an oven,And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble.And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”Says the Lord of hosts,“That will leave them neither root nor branch.² But to you who fear My nameThe Sun of Righteousness shall ariseWith healing in His wings;And you shall go outAnd grow fat like stall-fed calves.³ You shall trample the wicked,For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feetOn the day that I do this,”Says the Lord of hosts.

⁴ “Remember the Law of Moses, My servant,Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,With the statutes and judgments.⁵ Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophetBefore the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.⁶ And he will turnThe hearts of the fathers to the children,And the hearts of the children to their fathers,Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”
