Zephaniah 3:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ The Lord is ^(A)righteous ^(B)within her;
He will ^(C)do no injustice.
^(D)Every morning He brings His justice to light;
He does not fail.
But the unjust ^(E)knows no shame.
⁶ “I have cut off nations;
Their corner towers are in ruins.
I have made their streets ^(F)desolate,
With no one passing by;
Their ^(G)cities are laid waste,
Without a man, ^(H)without an inhabitant.
⁷ “I said, ‘Surely you will revere Me,
^(I)Accept instruction.’
So her dwelling will ^(J)not be cut off
According to all that I have appointed concerning her.
But they were eager to ^(K)corrupt all their deeds.
