The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 44: Malachias: The Challoner Revision
Bible. Malachi
4:1. For behold the day shall come kindled as a furnace: and all the
proud, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble: and the day that
cometh shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, it shall not
leave them root, nor branch.
4:2. But unto you that fear my name, the Sun of justice shall arise, and
health in his wings: and you shall go forth, and shall leap like calves
of the herd.
4:3. And you shall tread down the wicked when they shall be ashes under
the sole of your feet in the day that I do this, saith the Lord of
hosts. 4:4. Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded him
in Horeb for all Israel, the precepts, and judgments.
4:5. Behold, I will send you Elias the prophet, before the coming of the
great and dreadful day of the Lord.
4:6. 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 strike the
earth with anathema.
He shall turn the heart, etc... By bringing over the Jews to the faith
of Christ, he shall reconcile them to their fathers, viz., the
partiarchs and prophets; whose hearts for many ages have been turned
away from them, because of their refusing to believe in Christ.-Ibid.
With anathema... In the Hebrew, Cherem, that is, with utter destruction.
