Zephaniah 3:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Therefore [a]wait ye upon me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for I am determined to gather the nations, and that I will assemble the kingdoms to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce wrath: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
9 Surely [b]then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord to serve him [c]with one consent.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, the [d]daughter of my dispersed, praying unto me, shall bring me an offering.
