Malachi 4:2-6
English Standard Version
2 But for you (A)who fear my name, (B)the sun (C)of righteousness shall rise (D)with healing in its wings. You shall go out (E)leaping like calves from the stall. 3 And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, (F)on the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts.
4 (G)“Remember (H)the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules[a] that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.
5 (I)“Behold, I will send you (J)Elijah the prophet (K)before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 6 And he will (L)turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and (M)strike the land with a decree of utter destruction.”[b]
