For He is like a (B)smelter’s fire and like [a]fullers’ soap. 3 And He will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will (C)purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may (D)present to Yahweh [b]offerings in righteousness. 4 Then the [c]offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be (E)pleasing to Yahweh as in the (F)ancient days and as in former years.
