Zephaniah
Chapters 3:1-5
Revised Version 1885
1Woe to her that is rebellious and polluted, to the oppressing city!
2She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God.
3Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they leave nothing till the morrow.
4Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
5The Lord in the midst of her is righteous; he will not do iniquity; every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.
