Zephaniah 3:5

3:5 The just Lord resides within her;

he commits no unjust acts.

Every morning he reveals his justice.

At dawn he appears without fail.

Yet the unjust know no shame.


tn The word “resides” is supplied for clarification.

tn Or “he does no injustice.”

tn Heb “gives”; or “dispenses.”

tn Heb “at the light he is not missing.” Note that NASB (which capitalizes pronouns referring to Deity) has divided the lines differently: “Every morning He brings His justice to light; // He does not fail.”
