Text -- Zephaniah 1:12-18 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
1:12 At that time I will search through Jerusalem with lamps . I will punish the people who are entrenched in their sin , those who think to themselves , ‘The Lord neither rewards nor punishes .’
1:13 Their wealth will be stolen and their houses ruined ! They will not live in the houses they have built , nor will they drink the wine from the vineyards they have planted .
1:14 The Lord’s great day of judgment is almost here ; it is approaching very rapidly ! There will be a bitter sound on the Lord’s day of judgment; at that time warriors will cry out in battle.
1:15 That day will be a day of God’s anger , a day of distress and hardship , a day of devastation and ruin , a day of darkness and gloom , a day of clouds and dark skies ,
1:16 a day of trumpet blasts and battle cries. Judgment will fall on the fortified cities and the high corner towers .
1:17 I will bring distress on the people and they will stumble like blind men, for they have sinned against the Lord . Their blood will be poured out like dirt ; their flesh will be scattered like manure .
1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them in the day of the Lord’s angry judgment. The whole earth will be consumed by his fiery wrath . Indeed , he will bring terrifying destruction on all who live on the earth .”
