Zephaniah 3:9-11
International Standard Version
9 Indeed, then I will return my people to a pure language[a]
so that they all may call upon the name of the Lord,
serving him with a united will.[b]
10 “From beyond the rivers of Sudan[c] my worshipers[d]—
including my dispersed people—
will present offerings to me.
11 When this happens,[e] you will not be ashamed of your actions
by which you sinned against me,
because I will remove from among you those who revel in pride.
Arrogance will have no place in my holy mountain.

King James Version
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.
11 In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
