< Malakia 4 >
1 Fa, indro, avy ny andro, mandoro toy na fatana fandoroana izy; ary ny mpirehareha rehetra sy ny mpanao ratsy rehetra dia ho vodivary; ka dia handoro azy ny andro izay ho avy, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ka tsy hasiany miangana, na ny fakany na ny sampany.
For behold, the day commeth that shall burne as an ouen, and all the proude, yea, and all that doe wickedly, shall be stubble, and the day that commeth, shall burne them vp, sayeth the Lord of hostes, and shall leaue them neither roote nor branche.
2 Ary hiposaka aminareo, izay matahotra ny anarako, ny Masoandron’ ny fahamarinana, manana fanasitranana ao amin’ ny tanany; ary hivoaka ianareo ka hifalihavanja toy ny zanak’ omby mifahy;
But vnto you that feare my Name, shall the sunne of righteousnesse arise, and health shall be vnder his wings, and ye shall goe forth, and growe vp as fat calues.
3 ary hohitsahinareo ny ratsy fanahy; fa ho lavenona eo ambanin’ ny faladianareo izay amin’ ny andro izay hotendreko, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
And ye shall treade downe the wicked: for they shall be dust vnder the soles of your feete in the day that I shall doe this, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
4 Tsarovinareo ny lelan’ i Mosesy mpanompoko, izay nandidiako azy tao Horeba ny amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra, dia ny didy sy ny fitsipika.
Remember the lawe of Moses my seruant, which I commanded vnto him in Horeb for all Israel with the statutes and iudgements.
5 Indro, Izaho haniraka an’ i Elia mpaminany ho aminareo, dieny tsy mbola tonga ny andron’ i Jehovah, ilay lehibe sady mahatahotra;
Beholde, I will sende you Eliiah the Prophet before the comming of the great and fearefull day of the Lord.
6 ary izay hampody ny fon’ ny ray ho amin’ ny zanaka, ary ny fon’ ny zanaka ho amin’ ny rainy, fandrao ho avy Aho hamely ny tany amin’ ny fandringanana.
And he shall turne 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 cursing.
