Zephaniah 3:5 WEB

³  Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing until the next day.

⁴  Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.

⁵  Yahweh, in the midst of her, is righteous. He will do no wrong. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He doesn't fail, but the unjust know no shame.

⁶  I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.

⁷  I said, 'Just fear me. Receive correction, so that her dwelling won't be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her.' But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.
