Malachi 4
1 For, behold, the day will arrive, kindled like a furnace, and all the arrogant and all those who act impiously will be stubble. And the approaching day will inflame them, says the Lord of hosts; it will leave behind for them neither root, nor sprout.
“Zvirokwazvo zuva rinouya; richapisa sechoto. Vose vanozvikudza navaiti vezvakaipa vachava mashanga, uye zuva iro rinouya richavapisa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Hapana mudzi kana davi zvichasara.
2 But unto you, who fear my name, the Sun of justice will arise, and health will be in his wings. And you will go forth and leap like the calves of the herd.
Asi kunemi munotya zita rangu, zuva rokururama richabuda rino kuporesa mumapapiro aro. Uye muchabuda muchisvetuka semhuru dzabudiswa muchirugu.
3 And you will trample the impious, while they will be ashes under the sole of your foot, on the day that I act, says the Lord of hosts.
Ipapo muchatsikira pasi vakaipa; vachava madota pasi petsoka dzenyu pazuva iro pandichaita zvinhu izvi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
4 Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded him on Horeb for all Israel, the precepts and the judgments.
“Rangarirai murayiro womuranda wangu Mozisi, mitemo nemirayiro yandakamupa paHorebhi kuti ipiwe vaIsraeri vose.
5 Behold, I will send to you Elijah the prophet, before the arrival of the great and terrible day of the Lord.
“Tarirai, ndichakutumirai muprofita Eria, zuva iro guru raJehovha, uye rinotyisa risati rasvika.
6 And he will turn the heart of the fathers to the sons, and the heart of the sons to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with anathema.
Iye achadzosera mwoyo yamadzibaba kuvana vavo, nemwoyo yavana kumadzibaba avo; kana kuti ndichauya ndigorova nyika nechituko.”
