Zephaniah 1:7-9

¹^aBe silent before Lord Yahweh!

For the ^bday of Yahweh is near,

For Yahweh has prepared a ^csacrifice;

He has ^dset apart His guests.

“Then it will be on the day of Yahweh’s sacrifice

That I will ^apunish the princes, the king’s sons,

And all who clothe themselves with ^bforeign garments.

And I will punish on that day all who leap on the temple threshold,

Who fill the house of their ¹Lord with ^aviolence and deceit.
