Zephaniah 1:4-9 (World English Bible)
View In My Bible
4
I will stretch out my hand against Judah, and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place: the name of the idolatrous and pagan priests,
5
those who worship the host of the sky on the housetops, those who worship and swear by Yahweh and also swear by Malcam,
6
those who have turned back from following Yahweh, and those who haven't sought Yahweh nor inquired after him.
7
Be silent at the presence of the Lord Yahweh, for the day of Yahweh is at hand. For Yahweh has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
8
It will happen in the day of Yahweh's sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, the king's sons, and all those who as are clothed with foreign clothing.
9
In that day, I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, who fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
