Zephaniah 2




updv@Zephaniah:2:1 @ Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, O nation that has no shame;

updv@Zephaniah:2:2 @ before the decree brings forth, [before] the day passes as the chaff, before the fierce anger of Yahweh comes on you(note:){+}(:note), before the day of Yahweh's anger comes on you{+}.

updv@Zephaniah:2:3 @ Seek(note:){+}(:note) Yahweh, all you{+} meek of the earth, that have kept his ordinances; seek{+} righteousness, seek{+} meekness: it may be you{+} will be hid in the day of Yahweh's anger.

updv@Zephaniah:2:4 @ For Gaza will be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation; they will drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron will be rooted up.

updv@Zephaniah:2:5 @ Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of Yahweh is against you(note:){+}(:note), O Canaan, the land of the Philistines; I will destroy you, that there will be no inhabitant.

updv@Zephaniah:2:6 @ And the seacoast will be pastures, cisterns of shepherds and folds for flocks.

updv@Zephaniah:2:7 @ And the portion will be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they will feed [their flocks] thereupon; in the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down in the evening; for Yahweh their God will visit them, and bring back their destiny.

updv@Zephaniah:2:8 @ I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the sons of Ammon, with which they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border.

updv@Zephaniah:2:9 @ Therefore as I live, says Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab will be as Sodom, and the sons of Ammon as Gomorrah, a possession of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people will make a prey of them, and the remnant of my nation will inherit them.

updv@Zephaniah:2:10 @ This they will have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Zephaniah:2:11 @ Yahweh will be awesome to them; for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men will worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the nations.

updv@Zephaniah:2:12 @ You(note:){+}(:note) Ethiopians also, they are slain by my sword.

updv@Zephaniah:2:13 @ And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria, and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like the wilderness.

updv@Zephaniah:2:14 @ And herds will lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the pelican and the porcupine will lodge in her capitals; [their] voice will sing in the windows; desolation will be in the thresholds: for he has laid bare the cedar-work.

updv@Zephaniah:2:15 @ This is the joyous city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none besides me: how has she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! Everyone who passes by her will hiss, and wag his hand.
