Zephaniah 3:3

3 Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves, that leave nothing for the morning.

Zephaniah 3:3 In-Context

1 Woe to her that is rebellious and corrupted, to the oppressing city!
2 She hearkened not to the voice; she received not correction; she confided not in Jehovah; she drew not near her God.
3 Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves, that leave nothing for the morning.
4 Her prophets are vain-glorious, treacherous persons; her priests profane the sanctuary, they do violence to the law.
5 The righteous Jehovah is in the midst of her: he doeth no wrong. Every morning doth he bring his judgment to light; it faileth not: but the unrighteous knoweth no shame.
