Malachi 3:1-2

Evangelical Heritage Version

An Oracle From the Lord About the Messiah

3 Look! I am sending my messenger!^[a] He will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord, whom you are seeking, will come to his temple! The Messenger of the Covenant,^[b] in whom you delight, will surely come, says the Lord of Armies.

² But who can endure the day when he comes? Who will remain standing when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire, like launderers bleach!^[c]
