Holman Christian Standard Bible, 2009 (HCSB)

Back to Bible
1 [1]“For indeed, the day is coming, burning like a furnace, when all the arrogant and everyone who commits wickedness will become stubble. The coming day will consume them,” says the LORD of Hosts, “not leaving them root or branches.
2 But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings, ⓐ and you will go out and playfully jump like calves from the stall. [2]
3 You will trample the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day I am preparing,” says the LORD of Hosts.
4 “Remember the instruction of Moses My servant, the statutes and ordinances I commanded him at Horeb ⓑ for all Israel.
5 Look, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet ⓒ before the great and awesome Day of the LORD comes. ⓓ
6 [3]And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers. ⓔ Otherwise, I will come and strike the land [4] with a curse.”
