Zephaniah 3:4-6
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 Her prophets are reckless(A)—
treacherous men.
Her priests profane the sanctuary;
they do violence to instruction.(B)
5 The righteous Lord is in her;(C)
He does no wrong.(D)
He applies His justice morning by morning;
He does not fail at dawn,
yet the one who does wrong knows no shame.(E)
6 I have cut off nations;
their corner towers(F) are destroyed.
I have laid waste their streets,
with no one to pass through.
Their cities lie devastated,
without a person, without an inhabitant.(G)

with no one passing through.
Their cities are laid waste;(H)
they are deserted and empty.
