Malachi 3:4 Context
2But who may abide the day of his comming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiners fire, and like fullers sope. 3And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of siluer: and he shall purifie the sonnes of Leui, and purge them as gold & siluer, that they may offer vnto the Lord an offring in righteousnes. 4Then shall the offerings of Iudah and Ierusalem bee pleasant vnto the Lord, as in the dayes of old, and as in former yeeres. 5And I will come neere to you to iudgement, and I will bee a swift witnesse against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppresse the hireling in his wages, the widowe, and the fatherlesse, and that turne aside the stranger from his right, and feare not me, saith the Lord of hosts. 6For I am the Lord, I change not: therefore ye sonnes of Iacob are not consumed.
