But for you fearing My Name, The Sun of Righteousness has risen with healing in His wings, And you have gone forth, And have bounded as calves of a stall.

Behold, I am sending Elijah the prophet to you, Before the coming of the great and fearful Day of YHWH.

And he has turned back the heart of fathers to sons, And the heart of sons to their fathers, Before I come and have utterly struck the land!”
