Malachi 4
1 For see, the day is coming, it is burning like an oven; all the men of pride and all who do evil will be dry stems of grass: and in the day which is coming they will be burned up, says the Lord of armies, till they have not a root or a branch.
Fa, indro, avy ny andro, mandoro toy na fatana fandoroana izy; ary ny mpirehareha rehetra sy ny mpanao ratsy rehetra dia ho vodivary; ka dia handoro azy ny andro izay ho avy, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ka tsy hasiany miangana, na ny fakany na ny sampany.
2 But to you who give worship to my name, the sun of righteousness will come up with new life in its wings; and you will go out, playing like young oxen full of food.
Ary hiposaka aminareo, izay matahotra ny anarako, ny Masoandron’ ny fahamarinana, manana fanasitranana ao amin’ ny tanany; ary hivoaka ianareo ka hifalihavanja toy ny zanak’ omby mifahy;
3 And the evil-doers will be crushed under you, they will be dust under your feet, in the day when I do my work, says the Lord of armies.
ary hohitsahinareo ny ratsy fanahy; fa ho lavenona eo ambanin’ ny faladianareo izay amin’ ny andro izay hotendreko, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
4 Keep in mind the law of Moses, my servant, which I gave him in Horeb for all Israel, even the rules and the decisions.
Tsarovinareo ny lelan’ i Mosesy mpanompoko, izay nandidiako azy tao Horeba ny amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra, dia ny didy sy ny fitsipika.
5 See, I am sending you Elijah the prophet before the day of the Lord comes, that great day, greatly to be feared.
Indro, Izaho haniraka an’ i Elia mpaminany ho aminareo, dieny tsy mbola tonga ny andron’ i Jehovah, ilay lehibe sady mahatahotra;
6 And by him the hearts of fathers will be turned to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers; for fear that I may come and put the earth under a curse.
ary izay hampody ny fon’ ny ray ho amin’ ny zanaka, ary ny fon’ ny zanaka ho amin’ ny rainy, fandrao ho avy Aho hamely ny tany amin’ ny fandringanana.
