New King James Version

Zephaniah 3:7-10 New King James Version (NKJV)

7. I said, ‘Surely you will fear Me,You will receive instruction’—So that her dwelling would not be cut off,Despite everything for which I punished her.But they rose early and corrupted all their deeds.

8. “Therefore wait for Me,” says the Lord,“Until the day I rise up for plunder;My determination is to gather the nationsTo My assembly of kingdoms,To pour on them My indignation,All My fierce anger;All the earth shall be devouredWith the fire of My jealousy.

9. “For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language,That they all may call on the name of the Lord,To serve Him with one accord.

10. From beyond the rivers of EthiopiaMy worshipers,The daughter of My dispersed ones,Shall bring My offering.
