Malachi 4
1 For behold the day shall come kindled as a furnace: and all the proud, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, it shall not leave them root, nor branch.
“He vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ʻaho ʻe vela ʻo hangē ko e ngotoʻumu; pea ʻe tatau mo e veve ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fielahi, ʻio, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai angahala: pea ʻe vela ʻo ʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻoku haʻu,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “pea ʻe ʻikai toe ai hanau aka pe ha vaʻa.
2 But unto you that fear my name, the Sun of justice shall arise, and health in his wings: and you shall go forth, and shall leap like calves of the herd.
Ka ʻe hopo hake ʻae laʻā ʻoe angatonu mo e fakamoʻui ʻi hono kapakau, kiate kimoutolu ʻoku manavahē ki hoku huafa; pea te mou ʻalu atu, pea tupu ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻuhikiʻi pulu ʻi he fale fafanga.
3 And you shall tread down the wicked when they shall be ashes under the sole of your feet in the day that I do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
Pea te mou molomoloki ʻae kau angahala; he te nau hangē ko e efuefu ʻi homou lalo ʻaofi vaʻe, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te u fai ai eni,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
4 Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel, the precepts, and judgments.
“Manatu ʻakimoutolu ki he fono ʻa Mōsese ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate ia ʻi Holepi maʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻae ngaahi fekau mo e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
5 Behold I will send you Elias the prophet, before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
Vakai te u fekau ʻa ʻIlaisiā ko e palōfita kiate kimoutolu, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke hoko ʻae ʻaho lahi mo fakamanavahē ʻo Sihova:
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers: lest I come, and strike the earth with anathema.
Pea te ne liliu ʻae loto ʻoe mātuʻa ki he fānau, pea ko e loto ʻoe fānau ki heʻenau mātuʻa, telia naʻaku haʻu ke taaʻi ʻaki ʻa māmani ʻae malaʻia.”
