Zephaniah 3:2-4

New Catholic Bible

²It has not heeded any warning voice,
    it has not accepted any correction.
It has not placed its trust in the Lord;
    it has not drawn near to its God.
³The officials within it
    are roaring lions;
its judges are wolves of the wasteland
    that leave nothing in reserve for the morning.
⁴Its prophets are arrogant;
    they are treacherous men.
Its priests have profaned what is holy
    and done violence to the law.
