Malachi 3:16-18 (NKJV)
[16] Then those who feared the Lord spoke to one another,
And the Lord listened and heard them;
So a book of remembrance was written before Him
For those who fear the Lord
And who meditate on His name.
[17] “They shall be Mine,” says the Lord of hosts,
“On the day that I make them My jewels.
And I will spare them
As a man spares his own son who serves him.”
[18] Then you shall again discern
Between the righteous and the wicked,
Between one who serves God
And one who does not serve Him.
