Malachi 3:5 - John Wesley's Notes

Malachi 3:5

3 ^aHe will sit as a refiner and¹ a purifier of silver;
He will purify the sons of Levi,
And purge them as gold and silver,
That they may ^boffer to the Lord
An offering in righteousness.

4 “Then ^athe offering of Judah and Jerusalem
Will be¹ pleasant to the Lord,
As in the days of old,
As in former years.

5 And I will come near you for judgment;
I will be a swift witness
Against sorcerers,
Against adulterers,
^aAgainst perjurers,
Against those who ^bexploit wage earners and ^cwidows and orphans,
And against those who turn away an alien—
Because they do not fear Me,”
Says the Lord of hosts.

6 “For I am the Lord, ^aI do not change;
^bTherefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.

7 Yet from the days of ^ayour fathers
You have gone away from My ordinances
And have not kept them.
^bReturn to Me, and I will return to you,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
^c“But you said,
‘In what way shall we return?’
