Zephaniah 1:2-9

2I will utterly take away everythingH3605 from off the faceH6440 of the groundH127, saith Jehovah:

3I will take away manH120 and beast; I will take away the fowl of the heavensH8064 and the fishes of the seaH3220, and the stumbling-blocks with the wickedH7563, and I will cutH3772 off mankind from off the faceH6440 of the groundH127, saith Jehovah.

4And I will stretchH5186 forth my handH3027 upon JudahH3063, and upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; and I will cutH3772 off the remnantH7605 of BaalH1168 from this placeH4725, the nameH8034 of the Chemarim with the priestsH3548;

5and them that bowH7812 downH7812 to the hostH6635 of the heavensH8064 upon the housetops; and them that bowH7812 downH7812 to Jehovah, that swearH7650 by [him], and swearH7650 by Malcham;

6and them that turnH5472 back from after Jehovah, and that do not seekH1245 Jehovah, nor inquire for him.

7Be silent at the presenceH6440 of the Lord Jehovah; for the dayH3117 of Jehovah is at hand; for Jehovah hath preparedH3559 a sacrificeH2077, he hath hallowed his guests.

8And it shall come to pass in the dayH3117 of Jehovah's sacrificeH2077, that I will punishH6485 the princesH8269, and the king's sonsH1121, and all such as are clothedH3847 with foreignH5237 apparel.

9And in that dayH3117 will I punishH6485 all those that leapH1801 over the thresholdH4670, who fillH4390 their master's houseH1004 with violenceH2555 and deceitH4820.
