God's Word Translation

Zephaniah 3:1-4 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. How horrible it will be for that rebelliousand corrupt place, the city of violence.

2. It obeys no one.It does not accept correction.It does not trust the Lord.It does not draw close to its God.

3. Its officials are ⌊like⌋ roaring lions.Its judges are ⌊like⌋ wolves in the evening.They leave nothing to gnaw on for the morning.

4. Its prophets are reckless and unfaithful.Its priests contaminate what is holy.They violate the teachings.
