Zephaniah 3:9-13

9For then I will 1give to the peoples 2purified lips, That all of them may 3call on the name of the Lord, To serve Him 4shoulder to shoulder.10From beyond the rivers of 5Ethiopia My 6worshipers, 7My dispersed ones, Will 8bring My offerings.11In that day you will 9feel no shame Because of all your deeds By which you have rebelled against Me; For then I will remove from your midst Your 10proud, exulting ones, And you will never again be haughty On My 11holy mountain.12But I will leave among you A 12humble and lowly people, And they will 13take refuge in the name of the Lord.13The 14remnant of Israel will 15do no wrong And 16tell no lies, Nor will a deceitful tongue Be found in their mouths; For they will 17feed and lie down With no one to make them tremble.”
