Malachi 4 from Scroll 4Q76 Minor Prophetsa 1 For,
behold, the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who
work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them
up, says Yahweh of Armies, that it shall leave them neither
root nor branch. 2 But to you who fear my name shall the sun
of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like 4 Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances. 5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse. |

meaning are in green like this: green. This
is common in Hebrew. If
