Malachi 4

The Coming Day of Judgment

1 * 4:1 Verses 4:1-6 are numbered 3:19-24 in Hebrew text. The Lord of Heaven’s Armies says, "The day of judgment is coming, burning like a furnace. On that day the arrogant and the wicked will be burned up like straw. They will be consumed—roots, branches, and all.

2 "But for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings.*4:2 Or the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture.
