Zephaniah 1:6
1:6 and those who turn their backs on 1 the Lord
and do not want the Lord’s help or guidance.” 2
1 tn Heb “turn back from [following] after.”
2 tn Heb “who do not seek the Lord and do not inquire of him.” The present translation assumes the first verb refers to praying for divine help and the second to seeking his revealed will through an oracle. Note the usage of the two verbs in 2 Chr 20:3-4.
