New Testament

Zephaniah 3:1-4 New English Translation (NET)

1. The filthy, stained city is as good as dead;the city filled with oppressors is finished!

2. She is disobedient;she refuses correction.She does not trust the Lord;she does not seek the advice of her God.

3. Her princes are as fierce as roaring lions;her rulers are as hungry as wolves in the desert,who completely devour their prey by morning.

4. Her prophets are proud;they are deceitful men.Her priests defile what is holy;they break God’s laws.
