Malachi 4
1 For, behold, the day cometh, it burneth as a furnace; and all the proud, and all that work wickedness, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
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。
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
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。
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I do make, saith the LORD of hosts.
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。
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and judgments.
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。
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.
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；
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers; lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
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。
