Zephaniah 3:1-3

Common English Bible

3 Doom, obstinate one,
        the defiled one,
        the violent city.
² She listened to no voice;
        she accepted no discipline.
She didn’t trust in the Lord,
        nor did she draw near to her God.
³ The princes in her midst are roaring lions.
        Her judges are wolves of the evening;
        they leave nothing for the morning.
