Zephaniah 1:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ At that time I will pour out my anger.
    There will be great suffering and pain.
It will be a day of horrible trouble.
    It will be a time of darkness and gloom.
    It will be filled with the blackest clouds.
¹⁶ Trumpet blasts and battle cries will be heard.
    Soldiers will attack cities
    that have forts and corner towers.
¹⁷ I will bring great trouble on all people.
    So they will feel their way around like blind people.
    They have sinned against the Lord.
Their blood will be poured out like dust.
    Their bodies will lie rotting on the ground.
