Zephaniah 2:1-3

Judgment on Judah’s Enemies

1 Gather together, yes, gather,
O ⁱshameless nation,
2 ^jbefore the decree takes effect ^{▼▼Hebrew gives birth}
—before the day passes away ^llike chaff—
^mbefore there comes upon you
the burning anger of the Lord,
before there comes upon you
the day of the anger of the Lord.
3 ⁿSeek the Lord, ^oall you humble of the land,
who do his just commands; ^{▼▼Or who carry out his judgment}
^qseek righteousness; seek humility;
^rperhaps ^syou may be hidden
on the day of the anger of the Lord.
