Malachi 3:2-3
New English Translation
2 Who can endure the day of his coming? Who can keep standing when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire,[a] like a launderer’s soap. 3 He will act like a refiner and purifier of silver and will cleanse the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then they will offer the Lord a proper offering.
