Malachi 3:5

Judgment At The Lord's Coming

⁴ Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord, as in days gone by, and as in past years. ⁵ And I will come near to you for judging; I will quickly be a witness against the wonder-workers, against those who have been untrue in married life, against those who take false oaths; against those who keep back from the servant his payment, and who are hard on the widow and the child without a father, who do not give his rights to the man from a strange country, and have no fear of me, says the Lord of armies. ⁶ For I am the Lord, I am unchanged; and so you, O sons of Jacob, have not been cut off.
