Zephaniah 3

KJV

1  Woe1945 to her that is filthy4784 and polluted,1351 to the oppressing3238 city!5892

2  She obeyed8085 not3808 the voice;6963 she received3947 not3808 correction;4148 she trusted982 not3808 in the LORD;3068 she drew not near7126 3808 to413 her God.430

3  Her princes8269 within7130 her are roaring7580 lions;738 her judges8199 are evening6153 wolves;2061 they gnaw not the bones1633 3808 till the morrow.1242

4  Her prophets5030 are light6348 and treacherous900 persons:376 her priests3548 have polluted2490 the sanctuary,6944 they have done violence2554 to the law.8451

5  The just6662 LORD3068 is in the midst7130 thereof; he will not3808 do6213 iniquity:5766 every morning1242 1242 doth he bring5414 his judgment4941 to light,216 he faileth5737 not;3808 but the unjust5767 knoweth3045 no3808 shame.1322

6  I have cut off3772 the nations:1471 their towers6438 are desolate;8074 I made their streets waste,2717 2351 that none4480 1097 passeth by:5674 their cities5892 are destroyed,6658 so that there is no4480 1097 man,376 that there is none4480 369 inhabitant.3427

7  I said,559 Surely389 thou wilt fear3372 me, thou wilt receive3947 instruction;4148 so their dwelling4583 should not3808 be cut off,3772 howsoever3605 834 I punished6485 5921 them: but403 they rose early,7925 and corrupted7843 all3605 their doings.5949

8  Therefore3651 wait2442 ye upon me, saith5002 the LORD,3068 until the day3117 that I rise up6965 to the prey:5706 for3588 my determination4941 is to gather622 the nations,1471 that I may assemble6908 the kingdoms,4467 to pour8210 upon5921 them mine indignation,2195 even all3605 my fierce2740 anger:639 for3588 all3605 the earth776 shall be devoured398 with the fire784 of my jealousy.7068

9  For3588 then227 will I turn2015 to413 the people5971 a pure1305 language,8193 that they may all3605 call7121 upon the name8034 of the LORD,3068 to serve5647 him with one259 consent.7926

10  From beyond4480 5676 the rivers5104 of Ethiopia3568 my suppliants,6282 even the daughter1323 of my dispersed,6327 shall bring2986 mine offering.4503

11  In that1931 day3117 shalt thou not3808 be ashamed954 for all4480 3605 thy doings,5949 wherein834 thou hast transgressed6586 against me: for3588 then227 I will take away5493 out of the midst4480 7130 of thee them that rejoice5947 in thy pride,1346 and thou shalt no3808 more3254 5750 be haughty1361 because of my holy6944 mountain.2022

12  I will also leave7604 in the midst7130 of thee an afflicted6041 and poor1800 people,5971 and they shall trust2620 in the name8034 of the LORD.3068

13  The remnant7611 of Israel3478 shall not3808 do6213 iniquity,5766 nor3808 speak1696 lies;3577 neither3808 shall a deceitful8649 tongue3956 be found4672 in their mouth:6310 for3588 they1992 shall feed7462 and lie down,7257 and none369 shall make them afraid.2729

14  Sing,7442 O daughter1323 of Zion;6726 shout,7321 O Israel;3478 be glad8055 and rejoice5937 with all3605 the heart,3820 O daughter1323 of Jerusalem.3389

15  The LORD3068 hath taken away5493 thy judgments,4941 he hath cast out6437 thine enemy:341 the king4428 of Israel,3478 even the LORD,3068 is in the midst7130 of thee: thou shalt not3808 see7200 evil7451 any more.5750

16  In that1931 day3117 it shall be said559 to Jerusalem,3389 Fear3372 thou not:408 and to Zion,6726 Let not408 thine hands3027 be slack.7503

17  The LORD3068 thy God430 in the midst7130 of thee is mighty;1368 he will save,3467 he will rejoice7797 over5921 thee with joy;8057 he will rest2790 in his love,160 he will joy1523 over5921 thee with singing.7440

18  I will gather622 them that are sorrowful3013 for the solemn assembly,4480 4150 who are1961 of4480 thee, to whom the reproach2781 of5921 it was a burden.4864

19  Behold,2009 at that1931 time6256 I will undo6213 853 all3605 that afflict6031 thee: and I will save3467 853 her that halteth,6760 and gather6908 her that was driven out;5080 and I will get7760 them praise8416 and fame8034 in every3605 land776 where they have been put to shame.1322

20  At that1931 time6256 will I bring935 you again, even in the time6256 that I gather6908 you: for3588 I will make5414 you a name8034 and a praise8416 among all3605 people5971 of the earth,776 when I turn back7725 853 your captivity7622 before your eyes,5869 saith559 the LORD.3068

1 ὦ ἡ ἐπιφανὴς καὶ ἀπολελυτρωμένη ἡ πόλις ἡ περιστερά

2 οὐκ εἰσήκουσεν φωνῆς οὐκ ἐδέξατο παιδείαν ἐπὶ τῷ κυρίῳ οὐκ ἐπεποίθει καὶ πρὸς τὸν θεὸν αὐτῆς οὐκ ἤγγισεν

3 οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτῆς ἐν αὐτῇ ὡς λέοντες ὠρυόμενοι οἱ κριταὶ αὐτῆς ὡς λύκοι τῆς Ἀραβίας οὐχ ὑπελίποντο εἰς τὸ πρωί

4 οἱ προφῆται αὐτῆς πνευματοφόροι ἄνδρες καταφρονηταί οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῆς βεβηλοῦσιν τὰ ἅγια καὶ ἀσεβοῦσιν νόμον

5 ὁ δὲ κύριος δίκαιος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς καὶ οὐ μὴ ποιήσῃ ἄδικον πρωὶ πρωὶ δώσει κρίμα αὐτοῦ εἰς φῶς καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρύβη καὶ οὐκ ἔγνω ἀδικίαν ἐν ἀπαιτήσει καὶ οὐκ εἰς νεῖκος ἀδικίαν

6 ἐν διαφθορᾷ κατέσπασα ὑπερηφάνους ἠφανίσθησαν γωνίαι αὐτῶν ἐξερημώσω τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν τὸ παράπαν τοῦ μὴ διοδεύειν ἐξέλιπον αἱ πόλεις αὐτῶν παρὰ τὸ μηδένα ὑπάρχειν μηδὲ κατοικεῖν

7 εἶπα πλὴν φοβεῖσθέ με καὶ δέξασθε παιδείαν καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐξολεθρευθῆτε ἐξ ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῆς πάντα ὅσα ἐξεδίκησα ἐπ᾽ αὐτήν ἑτοιμάζου ὄρθρισον διέφθαρται πᾶσα ἡ ἐπιφυλλὶς αὐτῶν

8 διὰ τοῦτο ὑπόμεινόν με λέγει κύριος εἰς ἡμέραν ἀναστάσεώς μου εἰς μαρτύριον διότι τὸ κρίμα μου εἰς συναγωγὰς ἐθνῶν τοῦ εἰσδέξασθαι βασιλεῖς τοῦ ἐκχέαι ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς πᾶσαν ὀργὴν θυμοῦ μου διότι ἐν πυρὶ ζήλους μου καταναλωθήσεται πᾶσα ἡ γῆ

9 ὅτι τότε μεταστρέψω ἐπὶ λαοὺς γλῶσσαν εἰς γενεὰν αὐτῆς τοῦ ἐπικαλεῖσθαι πάντας τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου τοῦ δουλεύειν αὐτῷ ὑπὸ ζυγὸν ἕνα

10 ἐκ περάτων ποταμῶν Αἰθιοπίας οἴσουσιν θυσίας μοι

11 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῇς ἐκ πάντων τῶν ἐπιτηδευμάτων σου ὧν ἠσέβησας εἰς ἐμέ ὅτι τότε περιελῶ ἀπὸ σοῦ τὰ φαυλίσματα τῆς ὕβρεώς σου καὶ οὐκέτι μὴ προσθῇς τοῦ μεγαλαυχῆσαι ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος τὸ ἅγιόν μου

12 καὶ ὑπολείψομαι ἐν σοὶ λαὸν πραῢν καὶ ταπεινόν καὶ εὐλαβηθήσονται ἀπὸ τοῦ ὀνόματος κυρίου

13 οἱ κατάλοιποι τοῦ Ισραηλ καὶ οὐ ποιήσουσιν ἀδικίαν καὶ οὐ λαλήσουσιν μάταια καὶ οὐ μὴ εὑρεθῇ ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν γλῶσσα δολία διότι αὐτοὶ νεμήσονται καὶ κοιτασθήσονται καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ ἐκφοβῶν αὐτούς

14 χαῖρε σφόδρα θύγατερ Σιων κήρυσσε θύγατερ Ιερουσαλημ εὐφραίνου καὶ κατατέρπου ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου θύγατερ Ιερουσαλημ

15 περιεῖλεν κύριος τὰ ἀδικήματά σου λελύτρωταί σε ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν σου βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ κύριος ἐν μέσῳ σου οὐκ ὄψῃ κακὰ οὐκέτι

16 ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐρεῖ κύριος τῇ Ιερουσαλημ θάρσει Σιων μὴ παρείσθωσαν αἱ χεῖρές σου

17 κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐν σοί δυνατὸς σώσει σε ἐπάξει ἐπὶ σὲ εὐφροσύνην καὶ καινιεῖ σε ἐν τῇ ἀγαπήσει αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐφρανθήσεται ἐπὶ σὲ ἐν τέρψει ὡς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἑορτῆς

18 καὶ συνάξω τοὺς συντετριμμένους οὐαί τίς ἔλαβεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὴν ὀνειδισμόν

19 ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ποιῶ ἐν σοὶ ἕνεκεν σοῦ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ λέγει κύριος καὶ σώσω τὴν ἐκπεπιεσμένην καὶ τὴν ἀπωσμένην εἰσδέξομαι καὶ θήσομαι αὐτοὺς εἰς καύχημα καὶ ὀνομαστοὺς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ

20 καὶ καταισχυνθήσονται ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ὅταν καλῶς ὑμῖν ποιήσω καὶ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ὅταν εἰσδέξωμαι ὑμᾶς διότι δώσω ὑμᾶς ὀνομαστοὺς καὶ εἰς καύχημα ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς λαοῖς τῆς γῆς ἐν τῷ ἐπιστρέφειν με τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν ὑμῶν ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν λέγει κύριος

1 [Væ provocatrix, et redempta civitas, columba!

2 non audivit vocem,
et non suscepit disciplinam;
in Domino non est confisa,
ad Deum suum non appropinquavit.

3 Principes ejus in medio ejus quasi leones rugientes;
judices ejus lupi vespere, non relinquebant in mane.

4 Prophetæ ejus vesani, viri infideles;
sacerdotes ejus polluerunt sanctum,
injuste egerunt contra legem.

5 Dominus justus in medio ejus non faciet iniquitatem;
mane, mane judicium suum dabit in lucem, et non abscondetur;
nescivit autem iniquus confusionem.

6 Disperdidi gentes,
et dissipati sunt anguli earum;
desertas feci vias eorum,
dum non est qui transeat;
desolatæ sunt civitates eorum,
non remanente viro, neque ullo habitatore.

7 Dixi: Attamen timebis me,
suscipies disciplinam;
et non peribit habitaculum ejus,
propter omnia in quibus visitavi eam:
verumtamen diluculo surgentes corruperunt omnes cogitationes suas.

8 Quapropter exspecta me, dicit Dominus,
in die resurrectionis meæ in futurum:
quia judicium meum ut congregem gentes,
et colligam regna,
et effundam super eos indignationem meam,
omnem iram furoris mei:
in igne enim zeli mei devorabitur omnis terra.]

9 [Quia tunc reddam populis labium electum,
ut invocent omnes in nomine Domini,
et serviant ei humero uno.

10 Ultra flumina Æthiopiæ, inde supplices mei;
filii dispersorum meorum deferent munus mihi.

11 In die illa non confunderis super cunctis adinventionibus tuis,
quibus prævaricata es in me,
quia tunc auferam de medio tui magniloquos superbiæ tuæ,
et non adjicies exaltari amplius in monte sancto meo.

12 Et derelinquam in medio tui populum pauperem et egenum:
et sperabunt in nomine Domini.

13 Reliquiæ Israël non facient iniquitatem,
nec loquentur mendacium,
et non invenietur in ore eorum lingua dolosa,
quoniam ipsi pascentur, et accubabunt,
et non erit qui exterreat.

14 Lauda, filia Sion; jubila, Israël:
lætare, et exsulta in omni corde, filia Jerusalem.

15 Abstulit Dominus judicium tuum;
avertit inimicos tuos.
Rex Israël Dominus in medio tui:
non timebis malum ultra.

16 In die illa dicetur Jerusalem:
Noli timere; Sion: Non dissolvantur manus tuæ.

17 Dominus Deus tuus in medio tui fortis, ipse salvabit:
gaudebit super te in lætitia,
silebit in dilectione sua,
exsultabit super te in laude.

18 Nugas, qui a lege recesserant,
congregabo, quia ex te erant:
ut non ultra habeas super eis opprobrium.

19 Ecce ego interficiam omnes qui afflixerunt te in tempore illo:
et salvabo claudicantem,
et eam quæ ejecta fuerat congregabo:
et ponam eos in laudem, et in nomen,
in omni terra confusionis eorum,

20 in tempore illo quo adducam vos,
et in tempore quo congregabo vos.
Dabo enim vos in nomen,
et in laudem omnibus populis terræ,
cum convertero captivitatem vestram coram oculis vestris,
dicit Dominus.]
