Zephaniah 3:2

1 Woe to the city of oppressors, rebellious and defiled!

She heeded no voice; she accepted no correction. She does not trust in the LORD; she has not drawn near to her God.

3 Her princes are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves, leaving nothing for the morning.

4 Her prophets are reckless, faithless men. Her priests profane the sanctuary; they do violence to the law.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
