Zephaniah 3:1-5 (Revised Standard Version w/ Apocrypha)
View In My Bible
1
Woe to her that is rebellious and defiled, the oppressing city!
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.
3
Her officials within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves that leave nothing till the morning.
4
Her prophets are wanton, faithless men; her priests profane what is sacred, they do violence to the law.
5
The LORD within her is righteous, he does no wrong; every morning he shows forth his justice, each dawn he does not fail; but the unjust knows no shame.
