Zephaniah 3:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Punishment and Conversion of the Nations
8 Therefore wait for me, says the Lord,
for the day when I arise as a witness.
For my decision is to gather nations,
to assemble kingdoms,
to pour out upon them my indignation,
all the heat of my anger,
for in the fire of my passion
all the earth shall be consumed.(A)
9 At that time I will change the speech of the peoples
to a pure speech,
that all of them may call on the name of the Lord
and serve him with one accord.(B)
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush
my suppliants, my scattered ones,
shall bring my offering.(C)
