| Zephaniah 3:1 | Wo [to] the rebellious and polluted, The oppressing city! | Sorrow to her who is uncontrolled and unclean, the cruel town! | Woe to her that is rebellious and polluted! to the oppressing city! |
| Zephaniah 3:2 | She hath not hearkened to the voice, She hath not accepted instruction, In Jehovah she hath not trusted, Unto her God she hath not drawn near. | She gave no attention to the voice, she had no use for teaching, she put no faith in the Lord, she did not come near to her God. | She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God. |
| Zephaniah 3:3 | Her heads in her midst [are] roaring lions, Her judges [are] evening wolves, They have not gnawn the bone in the morning. | Her rulers are like loud-voiced lions in her; her judges are wolves of the evening, crushing up the bones before the morning. | Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they leave nothing till the morrow. |
| Zephaniah 3:4 | Her prophets unstable men of treachery, Her priests have polluted the sanctuary, They have violated the law. | Her prophets are good-for-nothing persons, full of deceit: her priests have made the holy place unclean and have gone violently against the law. | Her prophets are light and treacherous persons; her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. |
| Zephaniah 3:5 | Jehovah [is] righteous in her midst, He doth not do perverseness, Morning by morning His judgment he giveth to the light, It hath not been lacking, And the perverse doth not know shame. | The Lord in her is upright; he will not do evil; every morning he lets his righteousness be seen, he is unchanging; but the evil-doer has no sense of shame. | Jehovah in the midst of her is righteous; he will not do iniquity; every morning doth he bring his justice to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame. |
| Zephaniah 3:6 | I have cut off nations, Desolated have been their chief ones, I have laid waste their out-places without any passing by, Destroyed have been their cities, Without man, without inhabitant. | I have had the nations cut off, their towers are broken down; I have made their streets a waste so that no one goes through them: destruction has overtaken their towns, so that there is no man living in them. | I have cut off nations; their battlements are desolate; I have made their streets waste, so that none passeth by; their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant. |
| Zephaniah 3:7 | I have said: Only, ye do fear Me, Ye do accept instruction, And her habitation is not cut off, All that I have appointed for her, But they have risen early, They have corrupted all their doings. | I said, Certainly you will go in fear of me, and come under my training, so that whatever I may send on her may not be cut off before her eyes: but they got up early and made all their works evil. | I said, Only fear thou me; receive correction; so her dwelling shall not be cut off, [according to] all that I have appointed concerning her: but they rose early and corrupted all their doings. |
| Zephaniah 3:8 | Therefore, wait for Me an affirmation of Jehovah, For the day of My rising for prey, For My judgment [is] to gather nations, To assemble kingdoms, To pour out on them Mine indignation, All the heat of Mine anger, For by the fire of My jealousy consumed is all the earth. | For this reason, go on waiting for me, says the Lord, till the day when I come up as a witness: for my purpose is to send for the nations and to get the kingdoms together, so that I may let loose on them my passion, even all my burning wrath: for all the earth will be burned up in the fire of my bitter passion. | Therefore wait ye for me, saith Jehovah, until the day that I rise up to the prey; for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger; for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. |
| Zephaniah 3:9 | For then do I turn unto peoples a pure lip, To call all of them by the name of Jehovah, To serve Him [with] one shoulder. | For then I will give the people a clean language, so that they may all make prayer to the Lord and be his servants with one mind. | For then will I turn to the peoples of a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of Jehovah, to serve him with one consent. |
| Zephaniah 3:10 | From beyond the rivers of Cush, my supplicants, The daughter of My scattered ones, Do bring My present. | From over the rivers of Ethiopia, and from the sides of the north, they will come to me with an offering. | From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering. |
| Zephaniah 3:11 | In that day thou art not ashamed because of any of thine actions, Wherewith thou hast transgressed against Me, For then do I turn aside from thy midst The exulting ones of thine excellency, And thou dost add no more to be haughty, In My holy mountain. | In that day you will have no shame on account of all the things in which you did evil against me: for then I will take away from among you those who were lifted up in pride, and you will no longer be lifted up with pride in my holy mountain. | In that day shalt thou not be put to shame for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me; for then I will take away out of the midst of thee thy proudly exulting ones, and thou shalt no more be haughty in my holy mountain. |
| Zephaniah 3:12 | And I have left in thy midst a people humble and poor, And they have trusted in the name of Jehovah. | But I will still have among you a quiet and poor people, and they will put their faith in the name of the Lord. | But I will leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall take refuge in the name of Jehovah. |
| Zephaniah 3:13 | The remnant of Israel do no perversity, nor speak lies, Nor found in their mouth is a deceitful tongue, For they have delight, and have lain down, And there is none troubling. | The rest of Israel will do no evil and say no false words; the tongue of deceit will not be seen in their mouth: for they will take their food and their rest, and no one will be a cause of fear to them. | The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth; for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid. |
| Zephaniah 3:14 | Cry aloud, O daughter of Zion, shout, O Israel, Rejoice and exult with the whole heart, O daughter of Jerusalem. | Make melody, O daughter of Zion; give a loud cry, O Israel; be glad and let your heart be full of joy, O daughter of Jerusalem. | Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem. |
| Zephaniah 3:15 | Jehovah hath turned aside thy judgments, He hath faced thine enemy, The king of Israel, Jehovah, [is] in thy midst, Thou seest evil no more. | The Lord has taken away those who were judging you, he has sent your haters far away: the King of Israel, even the Lord, is among you: you will have no more fear of evil. | Jehovah hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the King of Israel, even Jehovah, is in the midst of thee; thou shalt not fear evil any more. |
| Zephaniah 3:16 | In that day it is said to Jerusalem, `Fear not, O Zion, let not thy hands be feeble. | In that day it will be said to Jerusalem, Have no fear: O Zion, let not your hands be feeble. | In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not; O Zion, let not thy hands be slack. |
| Zephaniah 3:17 | Jehovah thy God [is] in thy midst, A mighty one doth save, He rejoiceth over thee with joy, He doth work in His love, He joyeth over thee with singing.` | The Lord your God is among you, as a strong saviour: he will be glad over you with joy, he will make his love new again, he will make a song of joy over you as in the time of a holy feast. | Jehovah thy God is in the midst of thee, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love; he will joy over thee with singing. |
| Zephaniah 3:18 | Mine afflicted from the appointed place I have gathered, from thee they have been, Bearing for her sake reproach. | I will take away your troubles, lifting up your shame from off you. | I will gather them that sorrow for the solemn assembly, who were of thee; [to whom] the burden upon her was a reproach. |
| Zephaniah 3:19 | Lo, I am dealing with all afflicting thee at that time, And I have saved the halting one, And the driven out ones I do gather, And have set them for a praise and for a name, In all the land of their shame. | See, at that time I will put an end to all who have been troubling you: I will give salvation to her whose steps are uncertain, and get together her who has been sent in flight; and I will make them a cause of praise and an honoured name in all the earth, when I let their fate be changed. | Behold, at that time I will deal with all them that afflict thee; and I will save that which is lame, and gather that which was driven away; and I will make them a praise and a name, whose shame hath been in all the earth. |
| Zephaniah 3:20 | At that time I bring you in, Even at the time of My assembling you, For I give you for a name, and for a praise, Among all peoples of the land, In My turning back [to] your captivity before your eyes, said Jehovah! | At that time I will make you come in, at that time I will get you together: for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth when I let your fate be changed before your eyes, says the Lord. | At that time will I bring you in, and at that time will I gather you; for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I bring back your captivity before your eyes, saith Jehovah. |
