Zephaniah 1:8-13

8And it shall come to pass in the dayH3117 of Jehovah’s sacrificeH2077, that I will punishH6485 the princesH8269, and the king’sH4428 sonsH1121, and all such as are clothedH3847 with foreignH5237 apparel. 9And in that dayH3117 I will punishH6485 all those that leapH1801 over the thresholdH4670, that fillH4390 their master’sH113 houseH1004 with violenceH2555 and deceitH4820. 10And in that dayH3117, saith Jehovah, there shall beH1961 the noise of a cryH6818 from the fishH1709 gateH8179, and a wailingH3215 from the secondH4932 quarter, and a greatH1419 crashing from the hillsH1389. 11WailH3213, ye inhabitantsH3427 of Maktesh; for all the peopleH5971 of CanaanH3667 are undone; all they that were laden with silverH3701 are cutH3772 off. 12And it shall come to pass at that timeH6256, that I will searchH2664 JerusalemH3389 with lampsH5216; and I will punishH6485 the menH376 that are settled on their lees, that sayH559 in their heartH3824, Jehovah will not do goodH3190, neither will he do evilH7489. 13And their wealthH2428 shall becomeH1961 a spoil, and their housesH1004 a desolationH8077: yea, they shall buildH1129 housesH1004, but shall not inhabitH3427 them; and they shall plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, but shall not drinkH8354 the wineH3196 thereof.
