Zephaniah 3:8-20

3:8

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>_.

3:9

For then will I turn
<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>_.

3:11

In that day
<03117>

shalt thou not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

for all thy doings
<05949>_,

wherein thou hast transgressed
<06586> (8804)

against me: for then I will take away
<05493> (8686)

out of the midst
<07130>

of thee them that rejoice
<05947>

in thy pride
<01346>_,

and thou shalt no more
<03254> (8686)

be haughty
<01361> (8800)

because of my holy
<06944>

mountain
<02022>_.

{because...: Heb. in my holy}

3:12

I will also leave
<07604> (8689)

in the midst
<07130>

of thee an afflicted
<06041>

and poor
<01800>

people
<05971>_,

and they shall trust
<02620> (8804)

in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

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)_.

Sing
<07442> (8798)_,

O daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_;

shout
<07321> (8685)_,

O Israel
<03478>_;

be glad
<08055> (8798)

and rejoice
<05937> (8798)

with all the heart
<03820>_,

thy judgments

thine enemy
<0341> (8802)_:

the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[even] the LORD
<03068>_,

[is] in the midst
<07130>

of thee: thou shalt not see

evil
<07451>

any more.

thou not: [and to] Zion
<06726>_,

Let not thine hands
<03027>

be slack
<07503> (8799)_.

The LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

in the midst
<07130>

of thee [is] mighty

<06256>

I will undo
<06213> (8802)

all that afflict

<03467> (8689)

her that halteth
<06760> (8802)_,

and gather
<06908> (8762)

her that was driven out
<05080> (8737)_;

and I will get
<07760> (8804)

them praise
<08416>

and fame
<08034>

in every land
<0776>

where they have been put to shame

you a name
<08034>

and a praise

before your eyes
<05869>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_.
