Zephaniah 3:9-13

Restoration of Israel’s Remnant 9“Then I will purify the lips of the peoples, that all of them may call on the name of the LORD and serve him shoulder to shoulder.

10From beyond the rivers of Cush That is, the upper Nile region my worshipers, my scattered people, will bring me offerings.

11On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame for all the wrongs you have done to me, because I will remove from you your arrogant boasters. Never again will you be haughty on my holy hill.

12But I will leave within you the meek and humble. The remnant of Israel will trust in the name of the LORD .

13They will do no wrong; they will tell no lies. A deceitful tongue will not be found in their mouths. They will eat and lie down and no one will make them afraid.”
