Zephaniah 3:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh Will Pour Out His Anger
8 “Therefore (A)wait for Me,” declares Yahweh,
“For the day when I rise up as a witness.
Indeed, My judgment is to (B)assemble nations,
To gather kingdoms,
To pour out on them My indignation,
All My burning anger;
For (C)all the earth will be devoured
By the fire of My zeal.
9 For then I will change them to peoples with (D)purified lips,
That all of them may (E)call on the name of Yahweh,
To serve Him [a]shoulder to shoulder.
10 From beyond the rivers of [b](F)Ethiopia
My [c]worshipers, [d]My scattered ones,
Will (G)bring My offerings.
