Zephaniah 3:15-20 Common English Bible (CEB)

15. The Lord has removed your judgment;he has turned away your enemy.The Lord, the king of Israel, is in your midst;you will no longer fear evil.

16. On that day, it will be said to Jerusalem:Don’t fear, Zion.Don’t let your hands fall.

17. The Lord your God is in your midst—a warrior bringing victory.He will create calm with his love;he will rejoice over you with singing.

18. I will remove from you those worried about the appointed feasts.They have been a burden for her, a reproach.

19. Watch what I am about to do to all your oppressors at that time.I will deliver the lame;I will gather the outcast.I will change their shame into praise and fame throughout the earth.

20. At that time, I will bring all of you back,at the time when I gather you.I will give you fame and praise among all the neighboring peopleswhen I restore your possessions and you can see them—says the Lord.
