Malachi 3:2-4

Contemporary English Version

A Day of Change

^2 (A) On the day the Lord comes, he will be like a furnace that purifies silver or like strong soap in a washbasin. No one will be able to stand up to him. ³ The Lord will purify the descendants of Levi,^[a] as though they were gold or silver. Then they will bring the proper offerings to the Lord, ⁴ and the offerings of the people of Judah and Jerusalem will please him, just as they did in the past.
