21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also.
22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
23 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

12 Then the angel of the Lord answered and said, O Lord of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13 And the Lord answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.

Zephaniah 3:9-20
King James Version
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.
11 In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
12 I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
14 Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
15 The Lord hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.
17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
18 I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.
19 Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.
20 At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord.

Restoration of Israel’s Remnant
9 “Then I will purify the lips of the peoples,
that all of them may call(A) on the name of the Lord(B)
and serve(C) him shoulder to shoulder.
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush[a](D)
my worshipers, my scattered people,
will bring me offerings.(E)
11 On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame(F)
for all the wrongs you have done to me,(G)
because I will remove from you
your arrogant boasters.(H)
Never again will you be haughty
on my holy hill.(I)
12 But I will leave within you
the meek(J) and humble.
The remnant of Israel
will trust(K) in the name of the Lord.
13 They(L) will do no wrong;(M)
they will tell no lies.(N)
A deceitful tongue
will not be found in their mouths.(O)
They will eat and lie down(P)
and no one will make them afraid.(Q)”
14 Sing, Daughter Zion;(R)
shout aloud,(S) Israel!
Be glad and rejoice(T) with all your heart,
Daughter Jerusalem!
15 The Lord has taken away your punishment,
he has turned back your enemy.
The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you;(U)
never again will you fear(V) any harm.(W)
16 On that day
they will say to Jerusalem,
“Do not fear, Zion;
do not let your hands hang limp.(X)
17 The Lord your God is with you,
the Mighty Warrior who saves.(Y)
He will take great delight(Z) in you;
in his love he will no longer rebuke you,(AA)
but will rejoice over you with singing.”(AB)
18 “I will remove from you
all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals,
which is a burden and reproach for you.
19 At that time I will deal
with all who oppressed(AC) you.
I will rescue the lame;
I will gather the exiles.(AD)
I will give them praise(AE) and honor
in every land where they have suffered shame.
20 At that time I will gather you;
at that time I will bring(AF) you home.
I will give you honor(AG) and praise(AH)
among all the peoples of the earth
when I restore your fortunes[b](AI)
before your very eyes,”
says the Lord.

King James Version
14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the midst of Carmel: let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt will I shew unto him marvellous things.
16 The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might: they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the Lord our God, and shall fear because of thee.
18 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.
19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.

14 Shepherd(A) your people with your staff,(B)
the flock of your inheritance,
which lives by itself in a forest,
in fertile pasturelands.[a](C)
Let them feed in Bashan(D) and Gilead(E)

like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling(K) out of their dens;
they will turn in fear(L) to the Lord our God
and will be afraid of you.
18 Who is a God(M) like you,
who pardons sin(N) and forgives(O) the transgression
of the remnant(P) of his inheritance?(Q)
You do not stay angry(R) forever
but delight to show mercy.(S)
19 You will again have compassion on us;
you will tread our sins underfoot
and hurl all our iniquities(T) into the depths of the sea.(U)
20 You will be faithful to Jacob,
and show love to Abraham,(V)
as you pledged on oath to our ancestors(W)
in days long ago.(X)
