Malachi 4
1 For lo! the day, cometh, that burneth as a furnace, —and, all the proud and everyone who worketh lawlessness, shall be, stubble, and the day that cometh, shall consume them utterly, saith Yahweh of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
“Dájúdájú, ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀; tí yóò máa jó bi iná ìléru. Gbogbo àwọn agbéraga, àti gbogbo àwọn olùṣe búburú yóò dàbí àgékù koríko: ọjọ́ náà tí ń bọ̀ yóò si jó wọn run,” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Ti ki yóò fi kù gbòǹgbò kan tàbí ẹ̀ka kan fún wọn.
2 So shall the sun of righteousness, arise to you who revere my Name, with healing in his wings, —and ye shall come forth and leap for joy like calves let loose from the stall;
Ṣùgbọ́n fún ẹ̀yin tí ó bẹ̀rù orúkọ mi, oòrùn òdodo yóò yọ, pẹ̀lú ìmúláradá ni ìyẹ́ apá rẹ̀. Ẹ̀yin yóò sì jáde lọ, ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa fò fún ayọ̀ bi àwọn ẹgbọrọ màlúù tí a tú sílẹ̀ lórí ìso.
3 And ye shall tread down the lawless, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet, —in the day when I am working with effect, saith Yahweh of hosts.
Ẹ̀yin yóò sì tẹ àwọn ènìyàn búburú mọ́lẹ̀: nítorí wọn yóò di eérú lábẹ́ àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ yín, ní ọjọ́ náà tí èmi yóò ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí,” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, —which I commanded him in Horeb, for all Israel, statutes and regulations.
“Ẹ rántí òfin Mose ìránṣẹ́ mi, àwọn ìlànà àti òfin èyí tí mo fún un ní Horebu fún gbogbo Israẹli.”
5 Lo! I am sending unto you Elijah the prophet, —before the coming of the great and awful day of Yahweh;
“Wò ó, èmi yóò rán wòlíì Elijah sí i yín, ki ọjọ́ ńlá, ọjọ́ ẹ̀rù Olúwa to dé.
6 And he shall bring back the heart of the fathers unto the children, and the heart of the children unto their fathers, —lest I come, and smite the land, with utter destruction.
Òun yóò sì pa ọkàn àwọn baba dà sí ti àwọn ọmọ, àti ọkàn àwọn ọmọ sì ti àwọn baba wọn, bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, èmi yóò wá, èmi yóò sì fi ilẹ̀ náà gégùn.”
