The Mishpatim of the Risah'ah (wicked)

4:1(3:19) For, Hinei, the day comes, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do rish'ah (wickedly), shall be stubble: and the day that comes shall burn them up, said ADONAI (יהוה) Tzava'ot, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

4:2(3:20) But to you that fear My Name shall the Sun of tzedkah (צָדָק) arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

4:3 (3:21) And ye shall tread down the rasha (wicked); for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do [this], said ADONAI (יהוה) Tzava'ot.

4:4 (3:22) Zakar ye the Torah Mosheh My Eved, which I commanded to him in Horev for all Yisrael, [with] the hukim (statutes) and mishpatim.

4:5 (3:23) הִנֵּה אָנֹכִי שֹלֵחַ לָכֶם אֵת אֵלִיָּה הַנָּבִיא לִפְנֵי בּוֹאיוֹם יְהֹוָה הַגָּדוֹל וְהַנּוֹרָא׃

Hineh anochi sholeach lachem et Eliyah haNavi lifnei bo yom ADONAI haGadol vehanora.

Behold, I will send you Eliyah the Navi before the coming of the gadol and dreadful day of ADONAI (יהוה):

4:6 (3:24) And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a cherem (curse. )
