but the whole land
<0776>

shall be devoured

the nation

the land

of Moab
<04124>_,

shall lie down
<07257> (8804)

and the bittern
<07090>

shall lodge
<03885> (8799)

in the upper lintels
<03730>

of it; [their] voice
<06963>

shall sing
<07891> (8787)

in the windows
<02474>_;

desolation
<02721>

[shall be] in the thresholds

This [is] the rejoicing
<05947>

city

carelessly

that said
<0559> (8802)

in her heart
<03824>_,

I [am], and [there is] none beside
<0657>

me: how is she become a desolation
<08047>_,

a place for beasts
<02416>

to lie down in
<04769>_!

every one that passeth by
<05674> (8802)

her shall hiss
<08319> (8799)_,

[and] wag
<05128> (8686)

his hand

Her prophets
<05030>

[are] light
<06348> (8802)

<0900>

persons
<0582>_:

her priests
<03548>

have polluted
<02490> (8765)

the sanctuary
<06944>_,

they have done violence
<02554> (8804)

to the law
<08451>_.

I said
<0559> (8804)_,

Surely thou wilt fear
<03372> (8799)

me, thou wilt receive
<03947> (8799)

instruction
<04148>_;

so their dwelling
<04583>

should not be cut off
<03772> (8735)_,

howsoever
<0834> <03605>

I punished
<06485> (8804)

them: but
<0403>

they rose early
<07925> (8689)_,

[and] corrupted
<07843> (8689)

all their doings
<05949>_.

Therefore wait
<02442> (8761)

ye upon me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

until the day
<03117>

that I rise up
<06965> (8800)

to the prey
<05706>_:

for my determination
<04941>

[is] to gather
<0622> (8800)

the nations
<01471>_,

that I may assemble
<06908> (8800)

the kingdoms
<04467>_,

to pour
<08210> (8800)

upon them mine indignation
<02195>_,

[even] all my fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>_:

for all the earth
<0776>

shall be devoured
<0398> (8735)

with the fire
<0784>

of my jealousy
<07068>_.

<02015> (8799)

to the people
<05971>

a pure
<01305> (8803)

language
<08193>_,

that they may all call
<07121> (8800)

upon the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

to serve
<05647> (8800)

him with one
<0259>

consent
<07926>_.

{language: Heb. lip} {consent: Heb. shoulder}

3:10

From beyond
<05676>

the rivers
<05104>

of Ethiopia
<03568>

my suppliants
<06282>_,

[even] the daughter
<01323>

of my dispersed
<06327> (8803)_,

shall bring
<02986> (8686)

mine offering
<04503>_.

Zephaniah 3:13

3:13

The remnant
<07611>

of Israel
<03478>

shall not do
<06213> (8799)

iniquity
<05766>_,

nor speak
<01696> (8762)

lies
<03577>_;

neither shall a deceitful
<08649>

tongue
<03956>

be found
<04672> (8735)

in their mouth
<06310>_:

for they shall feed
<07462> (8799)

and lie down
<07257> (8804)_,

and none shall make [them] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.
