Zephaniah 3:9-11
International Standard Version
9 Indeed, then I will return my people to a pure language[a]
so that they all may call upon the name of the Lord,
serving him with a united will.[b]
10 “From beyond the rivers of Sudan[c] my worshipers[d]—
including my dispersed people—
will present offerings to me.
11 When this happens,[e] you will not be ashamed of your actions
by which you sinned against me,
because I will remove from among you those who revel in pride.
Arrogance will have no place in my holy mountain.
