Malachi 3:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ For our part,
    we regard the arrogant as happy.
Evildoers not only prosper,
    but when they put God to the test,
    they come to no harm.”
¹⁶ Then those who feared the Lord
    spoke with one another.
The Lord listened attentively,
    and a book of remembrance was written before him
of those who feared him
    and trusted in his name.
¹⁷ They shall be mine,
    says the Lord of hosts,
my own special possession
    on the day when I act,
and I will have compassion on them
    as a father has compassion
    on the son who serves him.
