Malachi 3:1-4

1 "See, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me.[a] Then the Lord you seek will suddenly come to His temple, the Messenger of the covenant[b] you desire-see, He is coming," says the Lord of Hosts.
2 But who can endure the day of His coming? And who will be able to stand when He appears?[c] For He will be like a refiner's fire[d] and like cleansing lye.
3 He will be like a refiner and purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver.[e] Then they will present offerings to the Lord in righteousness.
4 And the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem will please the Lord as in days of old and years gone by.
