For, behold, the day is coming, which shall burn as an oven; and all the presumptuous, yea, and all who practise wickedness shall be stubble: and the day that is coming shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, who will not leave them root or bough.
2 Ṣùgbọ́n fún ẹ̀yin tí ó bẹ̀rù orúkọ mi, oòrùn òdodo yóò yọ, pẹ̀lú ìmúláradá ni ìyẹ́ apá rẹ̀. Ẹ̀yin yóò sì jáde lọ, ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa fò fún ayọ̀ bi àwọn ẹgbọrọ màlúù tí a tú sílẹ̀ lórí ìso.
But there shall rise unto you that fear my name the sun of righteousness with healing in his wings: and ye will go forth, and grow fat as calves of the stall.
3 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì tẹ àwọn ènìyàn búburú mọ́lẹ̀: nítorí wọn yóò di eérú lábẹ́ àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ yín, ní ọjọ́ náà tí èmi yóò ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí,” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
And ye will tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day that I create, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 “Ẹ rántí òfin Mose ìránṣẹ́ mi, àwọn ìlànà àti òfin èyí tí mo fún un ní Horebu fún gbogbo Israẹli.”
Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, whom I commanded on Horeb for all Israel, statutes and ordinances.
5 “Wò ó, èmi yóò rán wòlíì Elijah sí i yín, ki ọjọ́ ńlá, ọjọ́ ẹ̀rù Olúwa to dé.
Behold, I send unto you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the day of the Lord, the great and the dreadful.
6 Òun yóò sì pa ọkàn àwọn baba dà sí ti àwọn ọmọ, àti ọkàn àwọn ọmọ sì ti àwọn baba wọn, bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, èmi yóò wá, èmi yóò sì fi ilẹ̀ náà gégùn.”
And he shall turn back 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.
