Zephaniah 3:1-3

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

The Wickedness of Jerusalem

3 Woe to her that is rebellious and defiled,
    the oppressing city!
²She listens to no voice,
    she accepts no correction.
She does not trust in the Lord,
    she does not draw near to her God.

³Her officials within her
are roaring lions;
her judges are evening wolves
that leave nothing till the morning.
