Di Day Wey Our Papa Go Act
Two different future for di one day wey our Papa go act: di proud people go burn like dry grass, but di people wey fear im name go comot dey jump like small cow wey dem free from di pen. E promise say Elijah go come first — to turn di heart of papas to dia pikin, and di heart of pikin to dia papas.
4 1Look—one day dey come, wey dey burn like furnace, wen all di proud people and every person wey dey do bad go turn to chaff; dat day go set dem on fire, na so di Papa of heaven army tok, e no go leave dem root or branch. 2But for una wey dey fear my name, di sun of correct-and-holy way go rise wit healing for im wings, and una go comot dey jump like small cow wey dem release from pen. 3Una go step for di wicked people head, dem go be ashes under una foot-bottom for di day wey I go act, na so di Papa of heaven army tok.
4“Remember di instruction of my servant Moses, di statutes and judgments wey I command am for Horeb for all Israel.
5Look, I go send Elijah di prophet come una before di great and awesome day of our Papa go reach. a a v5 Jesus point say John di Baptist na di Elijah wey dem promise for here, di one wey come prepare people heart for am (Matthew 11:14; 17:10-13). 6E go turn di heart of papa dem go dia pikin, and di heart of pikin dem go dia papa, so dat I no go come strike di land wit complete destruction.”
