Zephaniah Chapter 3

 

1 Woe to her who is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
2 She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God.
3 Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones until the next day.
4 Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
5 The just Jehovah is in the midst; he will not do iniquity: every morning does he bring his judgment to light, he fails not; but the unjust knows no shame.
6 I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passes by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.
7 I said, Surely you will reverence me, you will receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off. However I corrected them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.
8 Therefore wait you upon me, says Jehovah, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them my indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the Earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the Name of Jehovah, to serve Him with one consent.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring my offering.
11 In that day shall you not be ashamed for all your doings, in which you have transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of you those who rejoice in your pride, and you shall no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
12 I will also leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor people, and they shall flee for protection to the Name of Jehovah.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
14 Sing, Oh daughter of Zion; shout, Oh Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the mind, Oh daughter of Jerusalem.
15 Jehovah has taken away your judgments, he has cast out your enemy: the king of Israel, even Jehovah, is in the midst of you; you shall not see evil any more.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear you not: and to Zion, Let not your hands be slack.
17 Jehovah your God in the midst of you is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over you with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over you with singing.
18 I will gather those who are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of you, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.
19 at that time I will undo all that humiliate you; and I will save her who halts, and gather her who was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.
20 At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the Earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, says Jehovah.
