3 katapi New Standard Bible Passage
1 
2But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? " For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap;  
3he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, till they present right offerings to Yahweh. 
4Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to Yahweh as in the days of old and as in former years. 
5"Then I will draw near to you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow and the orphan, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says Yahweh of hosts.  
Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi New Standard Bible.
The katapi New Standard Bible is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages,
and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages.
Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole,
with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
