1 Ево, ја ћу послати анђела свог, који ће приправити пут преда мном, и изненада ће доћи у цркву своју Господ, ког ви тражите, и анђео заветни, ког ви желите, ево доћи ће, вели Господ над војскама.
1 “Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me! The Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to his temple. Behold, the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, is coming!” says Yahweh of Armies.
2 Али ко ће поднети дан доласка Његовог? И ко ће се одржати кад се покаже? Јер је Он као огањ ливчев и као мило бељарско.
2 “But who can endure the day of his coming? And who will stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like launderers’ soap;
3 И сешће као Онај који лије и чисти сребро, очистиће синове Левијеве, и претопиће их као злато и сребро, и они ће приносити Господу приносе у правди.
3 and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer to Yahweh offerings in righteousness.
4 И угодан ће бити Господу принос Јудин и јерусалимски као у старо време и као пређашњих година.
4 Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasant to Yahweh as in the days of old and as in ancient years.
5 И доћи ћу к вама на суд, и бићу брз сведок против врачара и против прељубочинаца и против оних који се куну криво и против оних који закидају најам најамнику, и удовици и сироти и дошљаку криво чине и не боје се мене, вели Господ над војскама.
5 I will come near to you to judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against the perjurers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and who deprive the foreigner of justice, and don’t fear me,” says Yahweh of Armies.
6 Јер ја Господ не мењам се; зато ви, синови Јаковљеви, не изгибосте.
6 “For I, Yahweh, don’t change; therefore you, sons of Jacob, are not consumed.
7 Од времена отаца својих одступисте од уредби мојих и не држасте их. Вратите се к мени, и ја ћу се вратити к вама, вели Господ над војскама. Али велите: У чем бисмо се вратили?
7 From the days of your fathers you have turned away from my ordinances and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says Yahweh of Armies. “But you say, ‘How shall we return?’
8 Еда ли ће човек закидати Бога? А ви мене закидате; и говорите: У чем Те закидамо? У десетку и у приносу.
8 Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me! But you say, ‘How have we robbed you?’ In tithes and offerings.
9 Проклети сте, јер ме закидате, ви, сав народ.
9 You are cursed with the curse; for you rob me, even this whole nation.
10 Донесите све десетке у спреме да буде хране у мојој кући, и окушајте ме у том, вели Господ над војскама, хоћу ли вам отворити уставе небеске и излити благослов на вас да вам буде доста.
10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this,” says Yahweh of Armies, “if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be enough room for.
11 И запретићу вас ради прождрљивцу, те вам неће кварити рода земаљског, и винова лоза у пољу неће вам бити неродна, вели Господ над војскама.
11 I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field,” says Yahweh of Armies.
12 И зваће вас блаженим сви народи, јер ћете бити земља мила, вели Господ над војскама.
12 “All nations shall call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land,” says Yahweh of Armies.
13 Жестоке беху ваше речи на ме, вели Господ; а ви велите: Шта говорисмо на Тебе?
13 “Your words have been harsh against me,” says Yahweh. “Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against you?’
14 Рекосте: Залуду је служити Богу, и каква ће бити корист да држимо шта је наредио да се држи, и да ходимо жалосни пред Господом над војскама?
14 You have said, ‘It is vain to serve God,’ and ‘What profit is it that we have followed his instructions and that we have walked mournfully before Yahweh of Armies?
15 Зато хвалимо поносите да су срећни; напредују који чине безакоње, и који искушавају Бога, избављају се.
15 Now we call the proud happy; yes, those who work wickedness are built up; yes, they tempt God, and escape.’
16 Тада који се боје Господа говорише један другом, и погледа Господ, и чу, и написа се књига за спомен пред Њим за оне који се боје Господа и мисле о имену Његовом.
16 Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened and heard, and a book of memory was written before him for those who feared Yahweh and who honored his name.
17 Ти ће ми бити благо, вели Господ над војскама, у онај дан кад ја учиним, и бићу им милостив као што је отац милостив свом сину који му служи.
17 They shall be mine,” says Yahweh of Armies, “my own possession in the day that I make. I will spare them, as a man spares his own son who serves him.
18 Тада ћете се обратити и видећете разлику између праведника и безбожника, између оног који служи Богу и оног који Му не служи.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Chapter XXIV — God continually shows us in nature that there will be a resurrection Let us …
Truly it was by Him, of whom Gabriel is the angel, who also announced the glad tidings of his birth: [that God] who also had promised by the prophets that He would send His messenger before the face of His Son, who should prepare His way, that is, that he should bear witness of that Light in the spirit and …
Behold, He cometh, saith the Lord Almighty, and who shall abide the day of His entry, or who shall stand at His appearing?" In this place he has foretold both the first and second advent of Christ: the first, to wit, of which he says, "And He shall come suddenly into His temple;" that is, into His flesh, of which …

Yea I say unto you, and more than a prophet;" He goes on, "For this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before Thy face, which shall prepare Thy way before Thee." Having before set down the testimony of the Jews, He then applies that of the prophets; or rather, He puts in the first …
