Malachi 4:3 in Context — Malachi 4

1 Car voici, le jour vient, Ardent comme une fournaise. Tous les hautains et tous les méchants seront comme du chaume; Le jour qui vient les embrasera, Dit l’Éternel des armées, Il ne leur laissera ni racine ni rameau.

2 Mais pour vous qui craignez mon nom, se lèvera Le soleil de la justice, Et la guérison sera sous ses ailes; Vous sortirez, et vous sauterez comme les veaux d’une étable,

3 Et vous foulerez les méchants, Car ils seront comme de la cendre Sous la plante de vos pieds, Au jour que je prépare, Dit l’Éternel des armées.

4 Souvenez-vous de la loi de Moïse, mon serviteur, Auquel j’ai prescrit en Horeb, pour tout Israël, Des préceptes et des ordonnances.

5 Voici, je vous enverrai Élie, le prophète, Avant que le jour de l’Éternel arrive, Ce jour grand et redoutable.
