Zephaniah 3:12-17

12So with you I will leave a faithful few, a humble and poor people. They will seek refuge in the name of the Lord.

13The faithful few in Israel will not do wrong, tell lies, or use their tongues to deceive others. They will graze their sheep and lie down, and there will be no one to terrify them.”

14Sing happily, people of Zion! Shout loudly, Israel! Celebrate and rejoice with all your heart, people of Jerusalem.

15The Lord has reversed the judgments against you. He has forced out your enemies. The king of Israel, the Lord, is with you. You will never fear disaster again.

16On that day Jerusalem will be told, “Do not be afraid, Zion! Do not lose courage!”

17The Lord your God is with you. He is a hero who saves you. He happily rejoices over you, renews you with his love, and celebrates over you with shouts of joy.
