Zephaniah 3

Woe
<01945>
to her that is filthy
<04754> (8802)
and polluted
<01351> (8737)_,
to the oppressing
<03238> (8802)
city
<05892>_!
{her...: or, gluttonous: Heb. craw}
She obeyed
<08085> (8804)
not the voice
<06963>_;
she received
<03947> (8804)
not correction
<04148>_;
she trusted
<0982> (8804)
not in the LORD
<03068>_;
she drew not near
<07126> (8804)
to her God
<0430>_.
{correction: or, instruction}
Her princes
<08269>
within
<07130>
her [are] roaring
<07580> (8802)
lions
<0738>_;
her judges
<08199> (8802)
[are] evening
<06153>
wolves
<02061>_;
they gnaw not the bones
<01633> (8804)
till the morrow
<01242>_.
Her prophets
<05030>
[are] light
<06348> (8802)
[and] treacherous
<0900>
persons
<0582>_:
her priests
<03548>
have polluted
<02490> (8765)
the sanctuary
<06944>_,
they have done violence
<02554> (8804)
to the law
<08451>_.
The just
<06662>
LORD
<03068>
[is] in the midst
<07130>
thereof; he will not do
<06213> (8799)
iniquity
<05766>_:
every
<01242>
morning
<01242>
doth he bring
<05414> (8799)
his judgment
<04941>
to light
<0216>_,
he faileth
<05737> (8738)
not; but the unjust
<05767>
knoweth
<03045> (8802)
no shame
<01322>_.
{every...: Heb. morning by morning}
I have cut off
<03772> (8689)
the nations
<01471>_:
their towers
<06438>
are desolate
<08074> (8738)_;
I made their streets
<02351>
waste
<02717> (8689)_,
that none passeth by
<05674> (8802)_:
their cities
<05892>
are destroyed
<06658> (8738)_,
so that there is no man
<0376>_,
that there is none inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.
{towers: or, corners}
I said
<0559> (8804)_,
Surely thou wilt fear
<03372> (8799)
me, thou wilt receive
<03947> (8799)
instruction
<04148>_;
so their dwelling
<04583>
should not be cut off
<03772> (8735)_,
howsoever
<0834> <03605>
I punished
<06485> (8804)
them: but
<0403>
they rose early
<07925> (8689)_,
[and] corrupted
<07843> (8689)
all their doings
<05949>_.
Therefore wait
<02442> (8761)
ye upon me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
until the day
<03117>
that I rise up
<06965> (8800)
to the prey
<05706>_:
for my determination
<04941>
[is] to gather
<0622> (8800)
the nations
<01471>_,
that I may assemble
<06908> (8800)
the kingdoms
<04467>_,
to pour
<08210> (8800)
upon them mine indignation
<02195>_,
[even] all my fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>_:
for all the earth
<0776>
shall be devoured
<0398> (8735)
with the fire
<0784>
of my jealousy
<07068>_.
For then will I turn
<02015> (8799)
to the people
<05971>
a pure
<01305> (8803)
language
<08193>_,
that they may all call
<07121> (8800)
upon the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
to serve
<05647> (8800)
him with one
<0259>
consent
<07926>_.
{language: Heb. lip} {consent: Heb. shoulder}
From beyond
<05676>
the rivers
<05104>
of Ethiopia
<03568>
my suppliants
<06282>_,
[even] the daughter
<01323>
of my dispersed
<06327> (8803)_,
shall bring
<02986> (8686)
mine offering
<04503>_.
In that day
<03117>
shalt thou not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)
for all thy doings
<05949>_,
wherein thou hast transgressed
<06586> (8804)
against me: for then I will take away
<05493> (8686)
out of the midst
<07130>
of thee them that rejoice
<05947>
in thy pride
<01346>_,
and thou shalt no more
<03254> (8686)
be haughty
<01361> (8800)
because of my holy
<06944>
mountain
<02022>_.
{because...: Heb. in my holy}
I will also leave
<07604> (8689)
in the midst
<07130>
of thee an afflicted
<06041>
and poor
<01800>
people
<05971>_,
and they shall trust
<02620> (8804)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
The remnant
<07611>
of Israel
<03478>
shall not do
<06213> (8799)
iniquity
<05766>_,
nor speak
<01696> (8762)
lies
<03577>_;
neither shall a deceitful
<08649>
tongue
<03956>
be found
<04672> (8735)
in their mouth
<06310>_:
for they shall feed
<07462> (8799)
and lie down
<07257> (8804)_,
and none shall make [them] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.
Sing
<07442> (8798)_,
O daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_;
shout
<07321> (8685)_,
O Israel
<03478>_;
be glad
<08055> (8798)
and rejoice
<05937> (8798)
with all the heart
<03820>_,
O daughter
<01323>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_.
The LORD
<03068>
hath taken away
<05493> (8689)
thy judgments
<04941>_,
he hath cast out
<06437> (8765)
thine enemy
<0341> (8802)_:
the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[even] the LORD
<03068>_,
[is] in the midst
<07130>
of thee: thou shalt not see
<07200> (8799)
evil
<07451>
any more.
In that day
<03117>
it shall be said
<0559> (8735)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
Fear
<03372> (8799)
thou not: [and to] Zion
<06726>_,
Let not thine hands
<03027>
be slack
<07503> (8799)_.
{slack: or, faint}
The LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in the midst
<07130>
of thee [is] mighty
<01368>_;
he will save
<03467> (8686)_,
he will rejoice
<07797> (8799)
over thee with joy
<08057>_;
he will rest
<02790> (8686)
in his love
<0160>_,
he will joy
<01523> (8799)
over thee with singing
<07440>_.
{rest: Heb. be silent}
I will gather
<0622> (8804)
[them that are] sorrowful
<03013> (8737)
for the solemn assembly
<04150>_,
[who] are of thee, [to whom] the reproach
<02781>
of it [was] a burden
<04864>_.
{reproach...: Heb. the burden upon it was reproach}
Behold, at that time
<06256>
I will undo
<06213> (8802)
all that afflict
<06031> (8764)
thee: and I will save
<03467> (8689)
her that halteth
<06760> (8802)_,
and gather
<06908> (8762)
her that was driven out
<05080> (8737)_;
and I will get
<07760> (8804)
them praise
<08416>
and fame
<08034>
in every land
<0776>
where they have been put to shame
<01322>_.
{get...: Heb. set them for a praise} {where...: Heb. of their shame}
At that time
<06256>
will I bring
<0935> (8686)
you [again], even in the time
<06256>
that I gather
<06908> (8763)
you: for I will make
<05414> (8799)
you a name
<08034>
and a praise
<08416>
among all people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>_,
when I turn back
<07725> (8800)
your captivity
<07622>
before your eyes
<05869>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
