Zephaniah 3:9-13

9For then I will 1restore to the peoples 2pure lips, So 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 worshipers, 6My dispersed ones, Will 7bring My offerings.11On that day you will 8feel no shame Because of all your deeds By which you have rebelled against Me; For then I will remove from your midst Your 9proud, arrogant ones, And you will never again be haughty On My 10holy mountain.12But I will leave among you A 11humble and lowly people, And they will 12take refuge in the name of the Lord.13The 13remnant of Israel will 14do no wrong And 15tell no lies, Nor will a deceitful tongue Be found in their mouths; For they will 16feed and lie down With no one to frighten them.”
