< Malachi 4 >
1 “Paske gade byen, jou a ap vini, byen cho tankou yon founo, lè tout moun ògeye yo ak tout malfektè yo va vin tounen pay vannen. Jou k ap vini an va fin boule yo nèt,” pale SENYÈ Dèzame yo: “jiskaske li pa kite pou yo ni rasin ni branch.
“For behold, the day is coming, burning like a furnace, when all the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble; the day is coming when I will set them ablaze,” says the LORD of Hosts. “Not a root or branch will be left to them.”
2 Men pou nou menm ki gen lakrent non Mwen an, solèy ladwati a va vin leve ak gerizon nan zèl li. Konsa, nou va sòti deyò pou sote toupatou tankou ti bèf ki fenk sòti nan pak yo.
“But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings, and you will go out and leap like calves from the stall.
3 Nou va foule mechan an anba pye nou, paske yo va tankou sann anba pla pye nou nan jou ke Mwen fè,” pale SENYÈ dèzame yo.
Then you will trample the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day I am preparing,” says the LORD of Hosts.
4 “Sonje lalwa a sèvitè Mwen an, Moïse, règleman ak òdonans ke M te kòmande li nan Horeb pou tout Israël yo.
“Remember the law of My servant Moses, the statutes and ordinances I commanded him for all Israel at Horeb.
5 “Gade byen, Mwen ap voye bannou Élie, pwofèt la, avan gwo jou tèrib a SENYÈ a vin rive a.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome Day of the LORD.
6 Li va tounen kè a papa yo vè pitit yo, e kè a pitit yo vè papa yo, pou m pa vin frape peyi a avèk yon malediksyon.”
And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Otherwise, I will come and strike the land with a curse.”
