1Jehovah of Hosts proclaims: »The day is coming when all arrogant and evil people will burn like stubble. On that day they will burn up and there will be nothing left of them, either root or bough. 2»The sun of righteousness with its healing will shine on you who respect my name and obey me. You will be free and paw the ground like fat calves.« 3»When I act you will tread down the wicked. They will be like dust under your feet,« Jehovah of Hosts said. 4»You should remember the Law of Moses my servant. I commanded the statutes and ordinances regulations and judgments to him at Horeb for all Israel. 5»Behold! I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible Day of Jehovah comes. 6»He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers and bring them together again before I come and strike the earth with destruction a curse.«
