Zephaniah 3:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² They do not listen to anyone's voice.

Nobody can warn them that they are doing wrong things.

They do not trust in the Lord.

They do not come near to their God.

³ The rulers of the city make a very loud noise with their voices like big wild animals.

Its judges are like hungry wolves.

They are like wolves that have even eaten all an animal's bones before morning.

⁴ Its prophets do not know what to think.

People cannot trust them.

Its priests have done wrong things,

even in God's holy house.

They have also made changes to God's rules.

They have made changes that they want.
