Zephaniah 1:14 - 1:18

« Hab 3 | Zeph 1 | Zeph 2 »

14

Near is the great day of Yahweh,

Near and coming very quickly;

O the sound, the day of Yahweh!

In it the mighty man cries out bitterly.

15

A day of fury is that day,

A day of trouble and distress,

A day of destruction and desolation,

A day of darkness and thick darkness,

A day of clouds and dense gloom,

16

A day of trumpet and loud shouting

Against the fortified cities

And the high corner towers.

17

I will bring distress on men

So that they will walk like the blind

Because they have sinned against Yahweh;

And their blood will be poured out like dust

And their flesh like dung.

18

Neither their silver nor their gold

Will be able to deliver them

On the day of the fury of Yahweh;

And all the earth will be devoured

In the fire of His jealousy,

For He will make a complete destruction,

Indeed a terrifying one,

Of all the inhabitants of the earth.
