The Great Day of the Lord

4 ^[a]“The coming day^[b] is certainly going to burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and all who practice evil will be stubble—the coming day will set them on fire,” says the Lord of the Heavenly Armies, “so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. ² But the Sun of Righteousness will arise with healing in its light^[c] for those who fear my name. You will go out and leap like calves released^[d] from their stalls ³ and trample down the wicked. Indeed, they will become ashes under the soles of your feet on the day I do this,” says the Lord of the Heavenly Armies.
