Zephaniah 2:3-5
GOD’S WORD Translation
3 Search for the Lord, all you humble people in the land
who carry out his justice.
Search for what is right.
Search for humility.
Maybe you will find shelter on the day of the Lord’s anger.
The Lord Will Judge His People’s Enemies
4 Gaza will be deserted,
and Ashkelon will be destroyed.
Ashdod will be driven out at noon,
and Ekron will be torn out by the roots.
5 How horrible it will be for those who live on the seacoast,
for the nation from Crete.
The Lord’s word is against you, Canaan, the land of the Philistines:
“I will destroy you so that no one will be living there.”
Zephaniah 2:3-5

3 Seek(A) the Lord, all you humble of the land,
you who do what he commands.

perhaps you will be sheltered(D)
on the day of the Lord’s anger.
