Zephaniah 3:2-4
International Children’s Bible
2 Her people don’t listen.
They can’t be taught to do right.
They don’t trust the Lord.
They don’t worship their God.
3 Their officers are like roaring lions.
Their rulers are like hungry wolves that attack in the evening.
In the morning nothing is left of those they attacked.
4 Their prophets are proud.
They cannot be trusted.
Their priests don’t respect holy things.
They break God’s teachings.

are roaring lions;(E)
her rulers are evening wolves,(F)
who leave nothing for the morning.(G)
4 Her prophets are unprincipled;
they are treacherous people.(H)
Her priests profane the sanctuary
and do violence to the law.(I)
