Zephaniah 1:14-18 Near is the great day of Yahweh! Near and exceedingly swift! The sound of the day of Yahweh! The master shall shriek there bitterly.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ Near is the great day of Yahweh! Near and exceedingly swift! The sound of the day of Yahweh! The master shall shriek there bitterly. ¹⁵ A day of rage is that day, a day of distress and constraint, a day of futility and futile effort, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of cloud and murkiness, ¹⁶ a day of trumpet and blast against the defended cities, and against the lofty corners." ¹⁷ And I cause distress for humanity, and they go as the blind, for against Yahweh they sin. And their blood shall be poured out as soil, and their intestines as ordure." ¹⁸ Moreover, their silver and their gold, will not be able to rescue them in the day of the rage of Yahweh; and by the fire of His jealousy the entire land shall be devoured; for a finish, yea, a hustled one, shall He make of all dwelling in the land."
