Zephaniah 3 : 11 - 20
Chapter 3
| 11 | In that day you shall not be shamed for any of your deeds In which you transgress against Me; For then I will take away from your midst Those who rejoice in your pride, And you shall no longer be haughty In My holy mountain.
|
| 12 | I will leave in your midst A meek and humble people, And they shall trust in the name of the LORD.
|
| 13 | The remnant of Israel shall do no unrighteousness And speak no lies, Nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth; For they shall feed their flocks and lie down, And no one shall make them afraid."
|
| 14 | Sing, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!
|
| 15 | The LORD has taken away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst; You shall see disaster no more.
|
| 16 | In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: "Do not fear; Zion, let not your hands be weak.
|
| 17 | The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing."
|
| 18 | "I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, Who are among you, To whom its reproach is a burden.
|
| 19 | Behold, at that time I will deal with all who afflict you; I will save the lame, And gather those who were driven out; I will appoint them for praise and fame In every land where they were put to shame.
|
| 20 | At that time I will bring you back, Even at the time I gather you; For I will give you fame and praise Among all the peoples of the earth, When I return your captives before your eyes," Says the LORD.
