Zephaniah 1:12-16
Zephaniah 1:12
At that time I will search through Jerusalem with lamps and I will punish those self-satisfied people, who are like wine left on its dregs, who say to themselves, “The Lord will not do good, nor will he do evil.”
Zephaniah 1:13
Their possessions will be looted; their houses will be demolished. They will build houses, but not live in them; they will plant vineyards, but not drink the wine.
Zephaniah 1:14
The great day of the Lord is near and approaching rapidly. It will be a bitter day—even warriors will cry out loud.
Zephaniah 1:15
It will be a day of anger, a day of trouble and distress, a day of disaster and ruin, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness,
Zephaniah 1:16
a day of trumpet calls and battle cries against fortified cities and watchtowers.
