Ἰδοὺ ἐξαποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου, καὶ ἐπιβλέψεται ὁδὸν πρὸ προσώπου μου, καὶ ἐξέφνης ἤξει εἰς τὸν ναὸν ἑαυτοῦ κύριος ὃν ὑμεῖς ζητεῖτε, καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος τῆς διαθήκης ὃν ὑμεῖς θέλετε· ἱδου ἔρχεται, λέγει Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ.

καὶ τίς ὑπομενεῖ ἡμέραν εἰσόδου αὐτοῦ; ἤ τίς ὑποστήσεται ἐν τῇ ὀπτασίᾳ αὐτοῦ; διότι αὐτὸς εἰσπορεύεται ὡς πῦρ χαρνευτηρίου καὶ ὡς ποία πλυνόντων.

καθιεῖται χωνεύων καὶ καθαρίζων ὡς τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ ὡς τὸ χρυσίον, καὶ καθαρίσει τοὺς υἱοὺς Λευεὶ καὶ χεεῖ αὐτοὺς σπερ τὸ χρυσίον καὶ ὡς τὸ ἀργύριον· καὶ ἔσονται τῷ κυρίῳ προσάγοντες ¹³ θυσίαν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ,

καὶ ἀρέσει τῷ κυρίῳ θυσία Ἰούδα καὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καθὼς αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ καθὼς τὰ ἔτη τὰ ἔμτπροσθεν.

καὶ προσάξω πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν κρίσει, καὶ ἔσομαι μάρτυς ταχὺς ἐπὶ τὰς φαρμακοὺς καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς μοιχαλίδας καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀμνύοντας τῷ ὀνόματί μου ἐπὶ ψεύδει, καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀποστεροῦντας μισθὸν μισθωτοῦ καὶ τοὺς καταδυναστεύοντας χήραν καὶ τοὺς κονου. λίζοντας ὄρφανοὺς καὶ τοὺς ἐκκλίνοντας κρίσιν προσηλύτου καὶ τοὺς μὴ φοβουμένους με, λέγει Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ.

διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἠλλοίωμαι.

Καὶ ὑμεῖς, υἱοὶ Ἰακώβ, οὐκ ἀπέχεσθε ¹ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδικιῶν τῶνπατέρων ὑμῶν, ἐξεκλίνατε νόμιμά μου καὶ οὐκ ἐφυλάξασθε. ἐπιστρέψατε πρὸς μέ, καὶ ἐπιστραφήσομαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος ὁ Παντοκράτωρ. καὶ εἵπατε Ἐν τίνι ἐπιστρέψωμεν;

μήτι πτερνιεῖ ἄνθρωπος θεόν; διότι ὑμεῖς πτερνίζετέ με. καὶ ἐρεῖτε Ἐν τίνι ἐπτερνίσαμέν σε; ὅτι τὰ ἐπιδέκατα καὶ αἱ ἀπαρχαὶ μεθʼ ὑμῶν εἰσιν·

καὶ ἀποβλέποντες ὑμεῖς ἀποβλέπετε, καὶ ἐμέ ὑμεῖς πτερνίζετε. τὸ ἔτος συνετελέσθη,

καὶ εἰσηνέγκατε πάντα ἐκφόρια εἰς τοὺς θησαυρούς, καὶ ἔσται ἡ διαρπαγὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ. ἐπισκέψασθε δὴ ἐν τούτῳ, λέγει Κύριος Γαντοκράτωρ· ἐὰν μὴ ἀνοίξω ὑμῖν τοὺς καταὸάκτας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἐκχεῶ ὑμῖν τὴν εὐλογίαν μου ἕως τοῦ ἱκανωθῆναι·

καὶ διαστελῶ ὑμῖν εἰς βρῶσιν, καὶ οὐ μὴ διαmφθείρω ὑμῶν τὸν καρπὸν τῆς γῆς, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀσθενήσει ὑμῶν ἡ ἄμπελος ἡ ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ, λέγει Κύριος TΙαντοκράτωρ.

καὶ μακαριοῖσιν ὑμᾶς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, διότι ἔσεσθε ὑμεῖς γῆ θελητή, λέγει ⁴⁵ Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ.

Ἐβαρύνατε ἐπʼ ἐμέ τοὺς λόγους ὑμῶν, ⁶ λέγει Κύριος, καὶ εἶπατε Ἐν τίνι κατελαλήσαμεν κατὰ σοῦ;

τἴτπατε Μάταιος ὁ δουλεύων θεῷ, καὶ τί πλέον ὅτι ἐφυλάξαμεν τὰ φυλάγματα αὐτοῦ, καὶ διότι ἐπορεύθημεν ἱκέται πρὸ προσώπου Κυρίου τχ Παντοκράτορος;

καὶ νῦν ἡμεῖς μακαρίζομεν ἀλλοτρίους, καὶ ἀνοικοδομοῦνται πάντες ποιοῦντες ἄνομα, καὶ ἀντέστησαν θεῷ καὶ ἐσῶθησαν.

Τhῦτα κατελάλησαν οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν κύριον, ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ· καὶ προσέσχεν Κύριος καὶ εἰσήκουσεν, καὶ ἔγραψεν βιβλίον μνημοσύνου ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸν τν κύριον καὶ εὐλαβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ.

Καὶ ἔσονταί μοι, λέγει Κύριος IΙαντοκράτωρ, εἰς ἡμέραν ἣν ἐγὼ ποιῶ εἰς περιποίησιν, καὶ αἱρετιῶ αὐτοὺς ὃν τρόπον αἱρετίζει ἄνθρωπος τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν δουλεύοντα αὐτῷ.

καὶ ἐπιστραφήσεσθε καὶ ὄψεσθε ἀνὰ μέσον δικαίου καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον ἀνόμου, καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ δουλεύοντος θεῷ καὶ τοῦ μὴ δουλεύοντος.

Μαλαχίας (Greek) (Septuaginta. The Old Testament in Greek According to the Septuagint. Volume 3: Hosea-4 Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Enoch, The Odes. Swete, Henry Barclay, editor. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1905)

Translations (1)

Malachi Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 3 focus

Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me; and the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, behold, he comes! says Yahweh of hosts.

But who can endure the day of his coming? And who will stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like launderer’s soap;

and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer to Yahweh offerings in righteousness.

Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasant to Yahweh, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.

I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the perjurers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and who deprive the foreigner of justice, and don’t fear me, says Yahweh of Hosts.

For I, Yahweh, don’t change; therefore you, sons of Jacob, are not consumed.

From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my ordinances, and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you, says Yahweh of Hosts. But you say, How shall we return?

Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me! But you say, How have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings.

You are cursed with the curse; for you rob me, even this whole nation.

Bring the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this, says Yahweh of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.

I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field, says Yahweh of Hosts.

All nations shall call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land, says Yahweh of Hosts.

Your words have been stout against me, says Yahweh. Yet you say, What have we spoken against you?

You have said, It is vain to serve God; and What profit is it that we have kept his charge, and that we have walked mournfully before Yahweh of Hosts?

Now we call the proud happy; yes, those who work wickedness are built up; yes, they tempt God, and escape.

Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened, and heard, and a book of memory was written before him, for those who feared Yahweh, and who honored his name.

They shall be mine, says Yahweh of Hosts, my own possession in the day that I make, and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son who serves him.

Then you shall return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who doesn’t serve him.
