Zephaniah 3:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² She hath not hearkened to the voice, neither hath she received discipline: she hath not trusted in the Lord, she drew not near to her God.

³ Her princes are in the midst of her as roaring lions: her judges are evening wolves, they left nothing for the morning.

⁴ Her prophets are senseless men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law.
