Zephaniah 3:1-5 (New Revised Standard)
View In My Bible
1
Ah, soiled, defiled, oppressing city!
2
It has listened to no voice; it has accepted no correction. It has not trusted in the Lord; it has not drawn near to its God.
3
The officials within it are roaring lions; its judges are evening wolves that leave nothing until the morning.
4
Its prophets are reckless, faithless persons; its priests have profaned what is sacred, they have done violence to the law.
5
The Lord within it is righteous; he does no wrong. Every morning he renders his judgment, each dawn without fail; but the unjust knows no shame.
