1“For, behold, the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them up,” says Yahweh of Armies, “that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
1Kajti glej, dan prihaja, ki gori kakor peč, in vsi prevzetniki in vsi, ki delajo brezbožno, bodo strnišče; in dan, ki prihaja, jih sežge, pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami, da jim ne ostavi ne korenine, ne mladike.
2But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall.
2Vam pa, ki se bojite imena mojega, vzide solnce pravičnosti in ozdravljenje bo pod njegovimi perutmi, in izhajali boste in skakali kakor pitana teleta;
3You shall tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I make,” says Yahweh of Armies.
3in pogazite brezbožnike, kajti kakor pepel bodo pod vašimi stopali v dan, ki ga jaz napravim, pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami.
4“Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.
4Spominjajte se zakona Mojzesa, hlapca mojega, ki sem mu ga zapovedal na Horebu, postave in sodbe za vsega Izraela.
5Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.
5Glej, jaz vam pošljem Elija proroka, preden pride dan GOSPODOV, veliki in strašni.In on obrne srce očetov k otrokom in srce otrok k njih očetom, da ne pridem in ne udarim dežele s prokletjem.
6He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”
6In on obrne srce očetov k otrokom in srce otrok k njih očetom, da ne pridem in ne udarim dežele s prokletjem.
