Malachias 4
1 For, behold, a day comes burning as an oven, and it shall consume them; and all the aliens, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that is coming shall set them on fire, says the Lord Almighty, and there shall not be left of them root or branch.
“Ampa ara, da no reba; ɛbɛdɛw te sɛ fononoo. Ahomasofo ne nnebɔneyɛfo nyinaa bɛyɛ nwura gunnwan, na saa da a ɛreba no wɔde ogya bɛto mu,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni. “Ɛrenka ntin anaa dubaa mma wɔn.
2 But to you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise, and healing [shall be] in his wings: and you shall go forth, and bound as young calves let loose from bonds.
Nanso mo a mode nidi ma me din no, trenee owia bepue ama mo, na ɛde ayaresa bɛba. Na mubepue na moahuruhuruw te sɛ nantwimma a wɔabue wɔn afi wɔn buw mu.
3 And you shall trample the wicked; for they shall be ashes underneath your feet in the day which I appoint, says the Lord Almighty.
Na mubetiatia atirimɔdenfo so; wɔbɛyɛ nsõ wɔ mo anan ase, da a mɛyɛ saa nneɛma yi,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni.
4 And, behold, I will send to you Elias the Thesbite, before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes;
“Monkae mʼakoa Mose mmara, ahyɛde ne mmara a mede maa no wɔ Horeb so se ɔmfa mma Israelfo nyinaa.
5 who shall turn again the heart of the father to the son, and the heart of a man to his neighbour, lest I come and strike the earth grievously.
“Mɛsoma Odiyifo Elia aba mo nkyɛn, ansa na Awurade da kɛse a ɛyɛ hu no aba.
6 Remember the law of my servant Moses, accordingly as I charged him [with it] in Choreb for all Israel, [even] the commandments and ordinances.
Ɔbɛdan agyanom koma akɔ wɔn mma so na wadan mma nso koma akɔ agyanom so, anyɛ saa a mede nnome bɛba abɛsɛe asase no.”
