耶和华的日子

“万军之耶和华说,‘那日要来临了,就像烧红的火炉,所有狂妄自大、作恶多端的人都要像碎秸一样被火烧尽,连根带枝,荡然无存。 但必有公义的太阳为你们这些敬畏我名的人升起,它的光芒有医治的能力。你们必像栏中出来的牛犊一样欢欣跳跃。 到我所定的日子,你们必践踏恶人,他们必成为你们脚下的尘土。’这是万军之耶和华说的。

“你们要记住我仆人摩西的律法,就是我在何烈山借着他传给以色列人的律例和典章。

“看啊,在耶和华那伟大而可畏的日子来临以前,我必差遣以利亚先知到你们那里。 他必使父亲的心转向儿女,儿女的心转向父亲,免得我来用咒诅毁灭这地方。”

The Great Day of God

“For behold, (A)the day is coming,
Burning like an oven,
And all (B)the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be (C)stubble.
And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“That will (D)leave them neither root nor branch.
But to you who (E)fear My name
The (F)Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
(G)You shall trample the wicked,
For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet
On the day that I do this,
Says the Lord of hosts.

“Remember the (H)Law of Moses, My servant,
Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,
With (I)the statutes and judgments.
Behold, I will send you (J)Elijah the prophet
(K)Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
And (L)he will turn
The hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers,
Lest I come and (M)strike the earth with (N)a curse.”
