Zephaniah 1:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 The inhabitants of the Mortar shall wail,
for all the traders have perished;
all who trade with silver have been cut off.
12 And it shall be that at that time
I will search Jerusalem with lamps,
and I will punish the men
whose senses are dulled from drinking,[a]
who say in their hearts,
‘Yahweh will not do good, nor will he do evil.’
13 Then their wealth shall be as plunder,
and their homes as desolation.
And they shall build their houses and not inhabit them,
and they shall plant vineyards and not drink their wine.”

Zephaniah 1:11-13
New International Version
11 Wail,(A) you who live in the market district[a];
all your merchants will be wiped out,
all who trade with[b] silver will be destroyed.(B)
12 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps
and punish those who are complacent,(C)
who are like wine left on its dregs,(D)
who think, ‘The Lord will do nothing,(E)
either good or bad.’(F)
13 Their wealth will be plundered,(G)
their houses demolished.
Though they build houses,
they will not live in them;
though they plant vineyards,
they will not drink the wine.”(H)
