Zephaniah 3
Woe
to
her
that
is
a
filthy
and
polluted,
to
the
oppressing
city!
2 She
a
obeyed
not
the
voice;
she
received
not
correction;
she
trusted
not
in
the
Lord;
she
drew
not
near
to
her
God.
3 Her
princes
within
her
are
roaring
lions;
her
judges
are
evening
a
wolves;
they
gnaw
not
the
bones
till
the
morrow.
4 Her
prophets
are
a
light
and
treacherous
persons:
her
priests
have
b
polluted
the
sanctuary,
they
have
done
violence
to
the
c
law.
5 The
just
Lord
is
in
the
midst
thereof;
he
will
not
do
iniquity:
every
morning
doth
he
bring
his
judgment
to
light,
he
faileth
not;
but
the
unjust
knoweth
no
shame.
6 I
have
cut
off
the
nations:
their
towers
are
desolate;
I
made
their
streets
waste,
that
none
passeth
by:
their
cities
are
destroyed,
so
that
there
is
no
man,
that
there
is
none
inhabitant.
7 I
said,
Surely
thou
wilt
fear
me,
thou
wilt
receive
instruction;
so
their
dwelling
should
not
be
cut
off,
howsoever
I
punished
them:
but
they
rose
early,
and
corrupted
all
their
doings.
8 Therefore
wait
ye
upon
me,
saith
the
Lord,
until
the
day
that
I
rise
up
to
the
prey:
for
my
determination
is
a
to
gather
the
b
nations,
that
I
may
assemble
the
kingdoms,
to
pour
upon
them
mine
indignation,
even
all
my
fierce
anger:
for
all
the
c
earth
shall
be
devoured
with
the
fire
of
my
jealousy.
9 For
then
will
I
turn
to
the
people
a
pure
a
language,
that
they
may
all
call
upon
the
name
of
the
Lord,
to
serve
him
with
one
b
consent.
10 From
a
beyond
the
rivers
of
Ethiopia
my
suppliants,
even
the
daughter
of
my
dispersed,
shall
bring
mine
offering.
11 In
that
day
shalt
thou
not
be
ashamed
for
all
thy
doings,
wherein
thou
hast
transgressed
against
me:
for
then
I
will
take
away
out
of
the
midst
of
thee
them
that
rejoice
in
thy
pride,
and
thou
shalt
no
more
be
a
haughty
b
because
of
my
holy
mountain.
12 I
will
also
leave
in
the
midst
of
thee
an
afflicted
and
poor
people,
and
they
shall
trust
in
the
name
of
the
Lord.
13 The
remnant
of
Israel
shall
not
do
iniquity,
nor
speak
a
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,
O
daughter
of
Zion;
shout,
O
Israel;
be
glad
and
rejoice
with
all
the
heart,
O
daughter
of
Jerusalem.
15 The
Lord
hath
taken
away
thy
judgments,
he
hath
cast
out
thine
enemy:
the
king
of
Israel,
even
the
Lord,
is
in
the
a
midst
of
thee:
thou
shalt
not
see
evil
any
more.
16 In
that
day
it
shall
be
said
to
Jerusalem,
Fear
thou
not:
and
to
Zion,
Let
not
thine
hands
be
slack.
17 The
Lord
thy
God
in
the
midst
of
thee
is
mighty;
he
will
save,
he
will
rejoice
over
thee
with
joy;
he
will
rest
in
his
love,
he
will
joy
over
thee
with
singing.
18 I
will
gather
them
that
are
sorrowful
for
the
solemn
assembly,
who
are
of
thee,
to
whom
the
reproach
of
it
was
a
burden.
19 Behold,
at
that
time
I
will
undo
all
that
afflict
thee:
and
I
will
save
her
that
a
halteth,
and
b
gather
her
that
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
a
gather
you:
for
I
will
make
you
a
name
and
a
b
praise
among
all
people
of
the
earth,
when
I
turn
back
your
c
captivity
before
your
eyes,
saith
the
Lord.
