Malachi 4

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 to you who revere my name there will arise the sun of righteousness with healing in its wings, and you will run free like calves let out from their 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.
In the day when I act you will tread down the wicked, they will be as ashes under the soles of your feet,’ 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 Moses my servant, statutes and judgments which I gave him at Horeb for all Israel.
5 “Gade byen, Mwen ap voye bannou Élie, pwofèt la, avan gwo jou tèrib a SENYÈ a vin rive a.
I am about to send to you Elijah the prophet, before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes.
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.”
He will turn fathers’ hearts to their sons and sons’ hearts to their fathers, so that I will not come and strike the earth with judgement.’
