3 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.

5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome Day of the LORD.
I am about to send to you Elijah the prophet, before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes.
6 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.”
He will turn fathers’ hearts to their sons and sons’ hearts to their fathers, so that I will not come and strike the earth with judgement.”
