Zephaniah 3:1 - The Message

Doom to the rebellious city, the home of oppressors—Sewer City!
The city that wouldn’t take advice,
   wouldn’t accept correction,
Wouldn’t trust God,
   wouldn’t even get close to her own god!
Her very own leaders
   are rapacious lions,
Her judges are rapacious timber wolves
   out every morning prowling for a fresh kill.
Her prophets are out for what they can get.
   They’re opportunists—you can’t trust them.
Her priests desecrate the Sanctuary.
   They use God’s law as a weapon to maim and kill souls.
Yet God remains righteous in her midst,
   untouched by the evil.
He stays at it, day after day, meting out justice.
   At evening he’s still at it, strong as ever.
But evil men and women, without conscience
   and without shame, persist in evil.
