Malachi 3:1-3

Revised Geneva Translation

3 “Behold, I will send My messenger. And he shall prepare the way before Me. And the LORD Whom you seek shall speedily come to His Temple. The messenger of the Covenant, whom you desire, behold, he shall come,” says the LORD of Hosts.

² “But who may abide the Day of His coming? And who shall endure when He appears? For He is like a purging fire, and like launderer’s soap.

³ “And He shall sit down to try and refine the silver. He shall even refine the sons of Levi and purify them as gold and silver, so that they may bring Offerings to the LORD in righteousness.
