You have wearied the Lord with your words. Yet you say, “How have we wearied Him?” In that you say, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and He delights in them,” or, “Where is the God of justice?”

“Behold, I am sending My messenger, and he will clear a way before Me. And the Lord, whom you are seeking, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming,” says the Lord of armies.

“But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire, and like launderer’s soap.

And He will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord offerings in righteousness.

Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old, and as in former years.

“Then I will come near to you for judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, those who oppress the wage earner in his wages or the widow or the orphan, and those who turn away the stranger from justice and do not fear Me,” says the Lord of armies.

“For I, the Lord, do not change; therefore you, the sons of Jacob, have not come to an end.

너희가 말로 여호와를 괴롭게 하고도 이르기를 우리가 어떻게 여호와를 괴롭혀 드렸나이까 하는도다 이는 너희가 말하기를 모든 악을 행하는 자는 여호와의 눈에 좋게 보이며 그에게 기쁨이 된다 하며 또 말하기를 정의의 하나님이 어디 계시냐 함이니라

You have wearied the Lord with your words. Yet you say, “How have we wearied Him?” In that you say, “Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and He delights in them,” or, “Where is the God of justice?”

만군의 여호와가 이르노라 보라 내가 내 사자를 보내리니 그가 내 앞에서 길을 준비할 것이요 또 너희가 구하는 바 주가 갑자기 그의 성전에 임하시리니 곧 너희가 사모하는 바 언약의 사자가 임하실 것이라

“Behold, I am sending My messenger, and he will clear a way before Me. And the Lord, whom you are seeking, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming,” says the Lord of armies.

그가 임하시는 날을 누가 능히 당하며 그가 나타나는 때에 누가 능히 서리요 그는 금을 연단하는 자의 불과 표백하는 자의 잿물과 같을 것이라

“But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire, and like launderer’s soap.

그가 은을 연단하여 깨끗하게 하는 자 같이 앉아서 레위 자손을 깨끗하게 하되 금, 은 같이 그들을 연단하리니 그들이 공의로운 제물을 나 여호와께 바칠 것이라

And He will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord offerings in righteousness.

그 때에 유다와 예루살렘의 봉헌물이 옛날과 고대와 같이 나 여호와께 기쁨이 되려니와

Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old, and as in former years.

내가 심판하러 너희에게 임할 것이라 점치는 자에게와 간음하는 자에게와 거짓 맹세하는 자에게와 품꾼의 삯에 대하여 억울하게 하며 과부와 고아를 압제하며 나그네를 억울하게 하며 나를 경외하지 아니하는 자들에게 속히 증언하리라 만군의 여호와가 말하였느니라

“Then I will come near to you for judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, those who oppress the wage earner in his wages or the widow or the orphan, and those who turn away the stranger from justice and do not fear Me,” says the Lord of armies.

나 여호와는 변하지 아니하나니 그러므로 야곱의 자손들아 너희가 소멸되지 아니하느니라

“For I, the Lord, do not change; therefore you, the sons of Jacob, have not come to an end.
