Zephaniah 3:6-8
New American Standard Bible 1995
6 “I have cut off nations;
Their corner towers are in ruins.
I have made their streets (A)desolate,
With no one passing by;
Their (B)cities are laid waste,
Without a man, (C)without an inhabitant.
7 “I said, ‘Surely you will revere Me,
(D)Accept instruction.’
So her dwelling will (E)not be cut off
According to all that I have appointed concerning her.
But they were eager to (F)corrupt all their deeds.
8 “Therefore (G)wait for Me,” declares the Lord,
“For the day when I rise up as a witness.
Indeed, My decision is to (H)gather nations,
To assemble kingdoms,
To pour out on them My indignation,
All My burning anger;
For (I)all the earth will be devoured
By the fire of My zeal.
