瑪拉基書 4
1 看，那日子來臨，勢必如冒火燄的火爐，所有的驕傲人和惡的人都要成為禾楷；那一天來到，必要將他們燒盡──萬軍的上主說──不給他們留下根和枝條。
"For, look, the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them up," says YHWH of hosts, "that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2 但為你們這些敬畏我名號的人，正義的太陽將要升起，以自己好似箭羽的光芒普施救恩；你們必將出來，蹦蹦跳跳有如出欄的牛犢。
But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall.
3 你們要踐踏惡人，因為在我行事之日，他們必要如同在你們腳下的塵土──萬軍的上說。
You shall tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I make," says YHWH of hosts.
4 你們應記得我僕人梅瑟的法律，即我在曷黎布山，命他傳於全以色列的誡命和制度。
"Remember the Law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.
5 看，在上主偉大及可怕的日子來臨以前，我必派遺先知厄里亞到你們這裏來；
Look, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of YHWH comes.
6 衪將使父親的心轉向兒子，使兒子的心轉向父親，免得我來臨時，以毀滅律打擊這地。
He will turn the 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.
