Malaki 4
1 “Tabbatacce rana tana zuwa; za tă yi ƙuna kamar wutar maƙera. Dukan masu girman kai da kowane mai aikata mugunta zai zama ciyawa, wannan rana mai zuwa za tă ƙone su. Babu saiwa ko reshen da za a bar musu,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
[This is also what] the Commander of the armies of angels says: “There will be a time that I will judge [and punish] people. [When that happens, it will be] like [SIM] a very hot furnace. At that time, all the proud and wicked people will be burned up like [MET] stubble burns. They will be burned up completely, [like] roots and branches [and everything else on a tree burns completely in a very hot fire].
2 Amma ku da kuke girmama sunana, ranar adalci za tă fito tare da warkarwa a fikafikanta. Za ku kuwa fita kuna tsalle kamar’yan maruƙan da aka sake daga garke.
But [as for] you who revere me [MTY], [the one who will save you will come to you] like [MET] [the sun shines in the morning, and enable you to] become righteous (OR, [do what is] righteous); he will restore you [and protect you like a bird protects its chicks] [MET] under its wings. [When he comes, ] you will [be very joyful], like [SIM] calves that go out from a barn into the pasture leaping [joyfully].
3 Sa’an nan za ku tattake mugaye; za su zama toka a ƙarƙashin tafin ƙafafunku a ranar da zan aikata waɗannan abubuwa, in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
At the time when I judge people, you will tread on wicked people as though [SIM] they were the dirt under your feet. [That is what I], the Commander of the armies of angels, promise.
4 “Ku tuna da dokar bawana Musa, ƙa’idodi da dokokin da na ba shi a Horeb domin dukan Isra’ila.
Be sure to obey the laws that I gave to Moses, who served me [well]. [Obey all] the commandments and regulations that I gave him on Sinai [Mountain], for all [you people of] Israel [to obey.]
5 “Ga shi, zan aika muku da annabi Iliya kafin babbar ranan nan mai banrazana ta Ubangiji tă zo.
Listen [to this: Some day] I will send to you the prophet Elijah. [He will arrive] before the great and dreadful/terrible day when [I], Yahweh, [will judge and punish people].
6 Zai juye zukatan iyaye ga’ya’yansu, zukatan’ya’ya kuma ga iyayensu; in ba haka ba zan bugi ƙasar da hallaka gaba ɗaya.”
Because of what he [preaches], parents and their children will [love] each other [again] [IDM]. If that does not happen, I will come and curse your country [and destroy it].”
