Malachi 4 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

The day of judgment

1. The day of judgment is certain to come. And it will be like a red-hot furnace with flames that burn up proud and sinful people, as though they were straw. Not a branch or a root will be left. I, the Lord All-Powerful, have spoken!

2. But for you who honour my name, victory will shine like the sun with healing in its rays, and you will jump around like calves at play.

3. When I come to bring justice, you will trample those who are evil, as though they were ashes under your feet. I, the Lord All-Powerful, have spoken!

4. Don't ever forget the laws and teachings I gave my servant Moses on Mount Sinai.

5. I, the Lord, promise to send the prophet Elijah before that great and terrible day comes.

6. He will lead children and parents to love each other more, so that when I come, I won't bring doom to the land.
