Zephaniah 3:3-5
EasyEnglish Bible
3 The rulers of the city make a very loud noise with their voices like big wild animals.
Its judges are like hungry wolves.
They are like wolves that have even eaten all an animal's bones before morning.
4 Its prophets do not know what to think.
People cannot trust them.
Its priests have done wrong things,
even in God's holy house.
They have also made changes to God's rules.
They have made changes that they want.
5 But the Lord is among all the people in the city.[a]
He will do what is right.
He is always the honest judge.
He never fails.
But the bad people do not know how to be ashamed.
