Malaki 4
1 Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔ be, “Kpɔ ɖa! Minɔ ŋudzɔ, ʋɔnudrɔ̃ŋkeke la gbɔna, ele bibim abe kpodzo ene. Dadalawo kple ame vɔ̃ɖiwo abi abe be ene eye abe ati ene la, woabi kple woƒe alɔwo kple kewo siaa.
For, behold, the day is coming, which shall burn as an oven; and all the presumptuous, yea, and all who practise wickedness shall be stubble: and the day that is coming shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, who will not leave them root or bough.
2 Ke mi ame siwo vɔ̃a nye ŋkɔ la, dzɔdzɔenyenye ƒe ɣe adze na mi eye dɔyɔyɔ ƒe ŋusẽ anɔ eƒe aʋalawo me. Miazɔ le ablɔɖe me, eye miati kpo akpɔ dzidzɔ abe nyitsui siwo do go tso nyikpo me le ƒoɖiɖi me ene.
But there shall rise unto you that fear my name the sun of righteousness with healing in his wings: and ye will go forth, and grow fat as calves of the stall.
3 Ekema gbe si gbe mawɔ esia la, mianye avuzi le ame vɔ̃ɖiwo dzi, eye woanɔ abe dzofi ene le miaƒe afɔ te.
And ye will tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day that I create, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 “Miɖo ŋui ne miawɔ ɖe se siwo katã mede na Israel dukɔ la to nye dɔla, Mose dzi le Horeb to dzi la dzi.
Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, whom I commanded on Horeb for all Israel, statutes and ordinances.
5 “Kpɔ ɖa, maɖo Nyagblɔɖila Eliya ɖe mi hafi Yehowa ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃ŋkeke gã dziŋɔ la naɖo.
Behold, I send unto you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the day of the Lord, the great and the dreadful.
6 Atrɔ fofowo ƒe dziwo ɖe wo viwo ŋu eye viwo ƒe dziwo ɖe fofowo ŋu be nyemana fiƒode nava anyigba la dzi o.”
And he shall turn back 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.
