rsv@Zephaniah:2:9 @ Therefore, as I live," says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Moab shall become like Sodom, and the Ammonites like Gomor'rah, a land possessed by nettles and salt pits, and a waste for ever. The remnant of my people shall plunder them, and the survivors of my nation shall possess them."

rsv@Zephaniah:2:11 @ The LORD will be terrible against them; yea, he will famish all the gods of the earth, and to him shall bow down, each in its place, all the lands of the nations.

rsv@Zephaniah:2:13 @ And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and he will make Nin'eveh a desolation, a dry waste like the desert.

rsv@Zephaniah:2:15 @ This is the exultant city that dwelt secure, that said to herself, "I am and there is none else." What a desolation she has become, a lair for wild beasts! Every one who passes by her hisses and shakes his fist.

rsv@Zephaniah:3:2 @ She listens to no voice, she accepts no correction. She does not trust in the LORD, she does not draw near to her God.

rsv@Zephaniah:3:3 @ Her officials within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves that leave nothing till the morning.

rsv@Zephaniah:3:6 @ "I have cut off nations; their battlements are in ruins; I have laid waste their streets so that none walks in them; their cities have been made desolate, without a man, without an inhabitant.

rsv@Zephaniah:3:7 @ I said, `Surely she will fear me, she will accept correction; she will not lose sight of all that I have enjoined upon her.' But all the more they were eager to make all their deeds corrupt."

rsv@Zephaniah:3:8 @ "Therefore wait for me," says the LORD, "for the day when I arise as a witness. For my decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out upon them my indignation, all the heat of my anger; for in the fire of my jealous wrath all the earth shall be consumed.

rsv@Zephaniah:3:14 @ Sing aloud, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel! Rejoice and exult with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!

rsv@Zephaniah:3:16 @ On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: "Do not fear, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak.

rsv@Haggai:2:7 @ and I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with splendor, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Haggai:2:11 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts: Ask the priests to decide this question,

rsv@Haggai:2:14 @ Then Haggai said, "So is it with this people, and with this nation before me, says the LORD; and so with every work of their hands; and what they offer there is unclean.

rsv@Haggai:2:18 @ Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the LORD's temple was laid, consider:

rsv@Haggai:2:22 @ and to overthrow the throne of kingdoms; I am about to destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations, and overthrow the chariots and their riders; and the horses and their riders shall go down, every one by the sword of his fellow.

rsv@Zechariah:1:12 @ Then the angel of the LORD said, `O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou have no mercy on Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these seventy years?'

rsv@Zechariah:1:14 @ So the angel who talked with me said to me, `Cry out, Thus says the LORD of hosts: I am exceedingly jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion.

rsv@Zechariah:1:15 @ And I am very angry with the nations that are at ease; for while I was angry but a little they furthered the disaster.

rsv@Zechariah:1:16 @ Therefore, thus says the LORD, I have returned to Jerusalem with compassion; my house shall be built in it, says the LORD of hosts, and the measuring line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.

rsv@Zechariah:1:17 @ Cry again, Thus says the LORD of hosts: My cities shall again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion and again choose Jerusalem.'"

rsv@Zechariah:1:21 @ And I said, "What are these coming to do?" He answered, "These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man raised his head; and these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations who lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter it."

rsv@Zechariah:2:7 @ Ho! Escape to Zion, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.

rsv@Zechariah:2:8 @ For thus said the LORD of hosts, after his glory sent me to the nations who plundered you, for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye:

rsv@Zechariah:2:10 @ Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for lo, I come and I will dwell in the midst of you, says the LORD.

rsv@Zechariah:2:11 @ And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.

rsv@Zechariah:2:12 @ And the LORD will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem."

rsv@Zechariah:3:9 @ For behold, upon the stone which I have set before Joshua, upon a single stone with seven facets, I will engrave its inscription, says the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the guilt of this land in a single day.

rsv@Zechariah:4:9 @ "The hands of Zerub'babel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also complete it. Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.

rsv@Zechariah:7:14 @ "and I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations which they had not known. Thus the land they left was desolate, so that no one went to and fro, and the pleasant land was made desolate."

rsv@Zechariah:8:2 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath.

rsv@Zechariah:8:3 @ Thus says the LORD: I will return to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, and Jerusalem shall be called the faithful city, and the mountain of the LORD of hosts, the holy mountain.

rsv@Zechariah:8:9 @ Thus says the LORD of hosts: "Let your hands be strong, you who in these days have been hearing these words from the mouth of the prophets, since the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.

rsv@Zechariah:8:13 @ And as you have been a byword of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you and you shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong."

rsv@Zechariah:8:22 @ Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of the LORD.

rsv@Zechariah:8:23 @ Thus says the LORD of hosts: In those days ten men from the nations of every tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, `Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'"

rsv@Zechariah:9:4 @ But lo, the Lord will strip her of her possessions and hurl her wealth into the sea, and she shall be devoured by fire.

rsv@Zechariah:9:7 @ I will take away its blood from its mouth, and its abominations from between its teeth; it too shall be a remnant for our God; it shall be like a clan in Judah, and Ekron shall be like the Jeb'usites.

rsv@Zechariah:9:9 @ Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he, humble and riding on an ass, on a colt the foal of an ass.

rsv@Zechariah:9:10 @ I will cut off the chariot from E'phraim and the war horse from Jerusalem; and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall command peace to the nations; his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.

rsv@Zechariah:9:13 @ For I have bent Judah as my bow; I have made E'phraim its arrow. I will brandish your sons, O Zion, over your sons, O Greece, and wield you like a warrior's sword.

rsv@Zechariah:10:1 @ Ask rain from the LORD in the season of the spring rain, from the LORD who makes the storm clouds, who gives men showers of rain, to every one the vegetation in the field.

rsv@Zechariah:10:2 @ For the teraphim utter nonsense, and the diviners see lies; the dreamers tell false dreams, and give empty consolation. Therefore the people wander like sheep; they are afflicted for want of a shepherd.

rsv@Zechariah:10:6 @ "I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back because I have compassion on them, and they shall be as though I had not rejected them; for I am the LORD their God and I will answer them.

rsv@Zechariah:10:9 @ Though I scattered them among the nations, yet in far countries they shall remember me, and with their children they shall live and return.

rsv@Zechariah:11:3 @ Hark, the wail of the shepherds, for their glory is despoiled! Hark, the roar of the lions, for the jungle of the Jordan is laid waste!

rsv@Zechariah:11:7 @ So I became the shepherd of the flock doomed to be slain for those who trafficked in the sheep. And I took two staffs; one I named Grace, the other I named Union. And I tended the sheep.

rsv@Zechariah:11:14 @ Then I broke my second staff Union, annulling the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

rsv@Zechariah:12:3 @ On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it shall grievously hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will come together against it.

rsv@Zechariah:12:9 @ And on that day I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

rsv@Zechariah:12:10 @ "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of compassion and supplication, so that, when they look on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a first-born.

rsv@Zechariah:13:4 @ On that day every prophet will be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; he will not put on a hairy mantle in order to deceive,

rsv@Zechariah:13:5 @ but he will say, `I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the soil; for the land has been my possession since my youth.'

rsv@Zechariah:14:2 @ For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women ravished; half of the city shall go into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

rsv@Zechariah:14:3 @ Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle.

rsv@Zechariah:14:14 @ even Judah will fight against Jerusalem. And the wealth of all the nations round about shall be collected, gold, silver, and garments in great abundance.

rsv@Zechariah:14:16 @ Then every one that survives of all the nations that have come against Jerusalem shall go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of booths.

rsv@Zechariah:14:18 @ And if the family of Egypt do not go up and present themselves, then upon them shall come the plague with which the LORD afflicts the nations that do not go up to keep the feast of booths.

rsv@Zechariah:14:19 @ This shall be the punishment to Egypt and the punishment to all the nations that do not go up to keep the feast of booths.

rsv@Malachi:1:11 @ For from the rising of the sun to its setting my name is great among the nations, and in every place incense is offered to my name, and a pure offering; for my name is great among the nations, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:1:14 @ Cursed be the cheat who has a male in his flock, and vows it, and yet sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished; for I am a great King, says the LORD of hosts, and my name is feared among the nations.

rsv@Malachi:2:6 @ True instruction was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he turned many from iniquity.

rsv@Malachi:2:7 @ For the lips of a priest should guard knowledge, and men should seek instruction from his mouth, for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:2:8 @ But you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to stumble by your instruction; you have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says the LORD of hosts,

rsv@Malachi:2:9 @ and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, inasmuch as you have not kept my ways but have shown partiality in your instruction."

rsv@Malachi:2:11 @ Judah has been faithless, and abomination has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah has profaned the sanctuary of the LORD, which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god.

rsv@Malachi:2:14 @ You ask, "Why does he not?" Because the LORD was witness to the covenant between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.

rsv@Malachi:3:9 @ You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me; the whole nation of you.

rsv@Malachi:3:12 @ Then all nations will call you blessed, for you will be a land of delight, says the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Malachi:3:17 @ "They shall be mine, says the LORD of hosts, my special possession on the day when I act, and I will spare them as a man spares his son who serves him.
