Zephaniah 3




ukjv@Zephaniah:3:1 @ Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:2 @ She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:3 @ Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the next day.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:4 @ Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:5 @ The just LORD is in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning does he bring his judgment to light, he fails not; but the unjust knows no shame.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:6 @ 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.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:7 @ I said, Surely you will fear me, you will receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:8 @ Therefore wait all of you upon me, says the LORD, 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 mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:9 @ For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:10 @ From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:11 @ In that day shall you not be ashamed for all your doings, wherein you have transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of you them that rejoice in your pride, and you shall no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:12 @ I will also leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:13 @ 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.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:14 @ Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:15 @ The LORD has taken away your judgments, he has cast out yours enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of you: you shall not see evil any more.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:16 @ In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear you not: and to Zion, Let not yours hands be slack.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:17 @ The LORD 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.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:18 @ I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of you, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:19 @ Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict you: and I will save her that haltes, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.

ukjv@Zephaniah:3:20 @ 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 the LORD.
