Zephaniah 1:5-7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁵those who bow down on the roofs
    to the host of the heavens;
those who bow down and swear to the Lord,
    but also swear by Milcom;^[a]
⁶those who have turned back from following the Lord,
    who have not sought the Lord or inquired of him.

⁷Be silent before the Lord God!
For the day of the Lord is at hand;
the Lord has prepared a sacrifice,
he has consecrated his guests.
