Zephaniah 3:14-16

EasyEnglish Bible

The Lord will be with his people

¹⁴ Sing, you people in Zion. You are my own people, like my own daughter.

Shout, you people in Israel!

Be very, very happy, my people in Jerusalem!

¹⁵ The Lord has not punished you as he would have done.

He has sent your enemy away.

I, the King of Israel, am with you!

The bad times have gone.

They will not happen again!

¹⁶ On that special day, this will be my message for Jerusalem.

‘Do not be afraid now! Do not be weak now!
