Zephaniah 1:9-11

Revised Standard Version

⁹On that day I will punish
every one who leaps over the threshold,
and those who fill their master’s house
with violence and fraud.”

¹⁰“On that day,” says the Lord,
    “a cry will be heard from the Fish Gate,
a wail from the Second Quarter,
    a loud crash from the hills.
¹¹Wail, O inhabitants of the Mortar!
    For all the traders are no more;
    all who weigh out silver are cut off.
