< Malachi 4 >
1 Gade! Jou a ap vini: Pral fè cho anpil tankou nan yon fou. Tout awogan yo ansanm ak tout mechan yo pral boule tankou pay chèch. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Wi, jou sa a, y'ap boule nèt san kite tras.
For, behold, the day comes, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yes, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that comes shall burn them up, says the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2 Men, pou moun k'ap sèvi m' yo, pouvwa mwen ki la pou delivre yo a ap leve tankou yon bèl solèy byen klere. Yo pral sote ponpe tankou jenn ti towo gra ki lage nan savann.
But to you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
3 Nou pral pilonnen mechan yo, yo pral tankou sann dife anba pye nou, jou m'a deside pou m' aji a. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki di sa.
And you shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, says the LORD of hosts.
4 Pa bliye sa Moyiz, sèvitè m' lan, te moutre nou, tout lòd ak tout regleman mwen te ba li sou mòn Orèb la pou tout pèp Izrayèl la.
Remember you the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
5 Jou m' lan pral yon gwo jou, yon jou ki pral fè moun tranble. Men, anvan li rive, mwen gen pou m' voye pwofèt Eli.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
6 Li gen pou l' fè papa byen ankò ak pitit, pitit vin byen ankò ak papa. Si se pa sa, m'ap vini, m'ap detwi peyi nou an nèt ale.
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.
