Zephaniah 1:11-13
Young's Literal Translation
11 Howl, ye inhabitants of the hollow place, For cut off hath been all the merchant people, Cut off have been all bearing silver.
12 And it hath come to pass, at that time, I search Jerusalem with lights, And I have laid a charge on the men Who are hardened on their preserved things, Who are saying in their heart: Jehovah doth no good, nor doth He evil.
13 And their wealth hath been for a spoil, And their houses for desolation, And they have built houses, and do not inhabit, And they have planted vineyards, And they do 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)
