New International Version

Zephaniah 3:10-16 New International Version (NIV)

10. From beyond the rivers of Cush my worshipers, my scattered people, will bring me offerings.

11. On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame for all the wrongs you have done to me, because I will remove from you your arrogant boasters. Never again will you be haughty on my holy hill.

12. But I will leave within you the meek and humble. The remnant of Israel will trust in the name of the Lord.

13. They will do no wrong; they will tell no lies. A deceitful tongue will not be found in their mouths. They will eat and lie down and no one will make them afraid.”

14. Sing, Daughter Zion; shout aloud, Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, Daughter Jerusalem!

15. The Lord has taken away your punishment, he has turned back your enemy. The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you; never again will you fear any harm.

16. On that day they will say to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, Zion; do not let your hands hang limp.
