Zephaniah 1:18

Penger og rikdom Dom og rettferdig straff

¹⁶ a day of horn blast and battle cry against the fortified cities, and against the high corner towers.

¹⁷ I will bring such distress on mankind that they will walk like the blind, because they have sinned against the LORD. Their blood will be poured out like dust and their flesh like dung.

Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them on the Day of the LORD’s wrath. The whole earth will be consumed by the fire of His jealousy.” For indeed, He will make a sudden end of all who dwell on the earth.
