Zephaniah 1:4-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

4. I will stretch out my hand against Judah,and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.I will cut off from this place the remnant of Baal,and the name of the idolatrous priests along with the priests,

5. and those who bow down on the roofsto the host of heaven;those who worship and swear oaths by the Lordand yet swear by Milcom;

6. those who have turned back from following the Lord,who have not sought the Lord nor inquired of Him.

7. Be silent before the Lord God!For the day of the Lord is at hand;the Lord has prepared the sacrifice;He has consecrated His guests.

8. On the day of the Lord’s sacrifice,I will punish the officialsand the king’s sons,and all who clothe themselveswith foreign attire.
