Malachi 3:2-4

English Standard Version

² But ^(A)who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For ^(B)he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap. ³ He will sit ^(C)as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring ^(D)offerings in righteousness to the Lord.^{[a] 4 (E)}Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in former years.
