Zephaniah 3:1-8

Woe
<01945>
to her that is filthy
<04754> (8802)
and polluted
<01351> (8737)_,
to the oppressing
<03238> (8802)
city
<05892>_!
{her...: or, gluttonous: Heb. craw}
She obeyed
<08085> (8804)
not the voice
<06963>_;
she received
<03947> (8804)
not correction
<04148>_;
she trusted
<0982> (8804)
not in the LORD
<03068>_;
she drew not near
<07126> (8804)
to her God
<0430>_.
{correction: or, instruction}
Her princes
<08269>
within
<07130>
her [are] roaring
<07580> (8802)
lions
<0738>_;
her judges
<08199> (8802)
[are] evening
<06153>
wolves
<02061>_;
they gnaw not the bones
<01633> (8804)
till the morrow
<01242>_.
Her prophets
<05030>
[are] light
<06348> (8802)
[and] treacherous
<0900>
persons
<0582>_:
her priests
<03548>
have polluted
<02490> (8765)
the sanctuary
<06944>_,
they have done violence
<02554> (8804)
to the law
<08451>_.
The just
<06662>
LORD
<03068>
[is] in the midst
<07130>
thereof; he will not do
<06213> (8799)
iniquity
<05766>_:
every
<01242>
morning
<01242>
doth he bring
<05414> (8799)
his judgment
<04941>
to light
<0216>_,
he faileth
<05737> (8738)
not; but the unjust
<05767>
knoweth
<03045> (8802)
no shame
<01322>_.
{every...: Heb. morning by morning}
I have cut off
<03772> (8689)
the nations
<01471>_:
their towers
<06438>
are desolate
<08074> (8738)_;
I made their streets
<02351>
waste
<02717> (8689)_,
that none passeth by
<05674> (8802)_:
their cities
<05892>
are destroyed
<06658> (8738)_,
so that there is no man
<0376>_,
that there is none inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.
{towers: or, corners}
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>_.
