Malakhi3
Malachi · Chapter 3
Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the master, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his heikhal, even the messenger of the b'rit, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts.
But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he
is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ sope:
And he shall sit
as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) an offering in righteousness.
Then shall the offering of Judah and Yerushalayim be pleasant unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), as in the days of old, and as in former years.
And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in
his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger
from his right,
and fear not me, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts.
For I
am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), I change not; therefore ye sons of Ya'aqov are not consumed.
Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept
them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?
Will a man rob Elohim? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
Ye
are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me,
even
this whole nation.
Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of shamayim, and pour you out a blessing, that
there shall not
be room enough
to receive it.
And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts.
And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts.
Your words have been stout against me, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH). Yet ye say, What have we spoken
so much against thee?
Ye have said, It
is vain to serve Elohim: and what profit
is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts?
And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea,
they that tempt Elohim are even delivered.
Then they that feared 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) spake often one to another: and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) hearkened, and heard
it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and that thought upon his name.
And they shall be mine, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth Elohim and him that serveth him not.

Psalms · Chapter 1
Blessed
is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
But his delight
is in the torah of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); and in his torah doth he meditate day and night.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
The ungodly
are not so: but
are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Tehillim2
Psalms · Chapter 2
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and against his anointed,
saying,
Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
He that sitteth in the shamayim shall laugh: the master shall have them in derision.
Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Tsiyon.
I will declare the decree: 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) hath said unto me, Thou
art
my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
Ask of me, and I shall give
thee the heathen
for
thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth
for
thy possession.
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
Serve 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Embrace purity, lest he be angry, and ye perish
from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed
are all they that put their trust in him.
