Zephaniah 3:1-5

DouayRheims(i) 1 Woe to the provoking and redeemed city, the dove. 2 She hath not hearkened to the voice, neither hath she received discipline: she hath not trusted in the Lord, she drew not near to her God. 3 Her princes are in the midst of her as roaring lions: her judges are evening wolves, they left nothing for the morning. 4 Her prophets are senseless, men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law. 5 The just Lord is in the midst thereof, he will not do iniquity: in the morning, in the morning he will bring his judgment to light, and it shall not be hid: but the wicked man hath not known shame.
