Zephaniah 3:8-10
Christian Standard Bible
8 Therefore, wait for me(A)—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
until the day I rise up for plunder.[a]
For my decision is to gather nations,
to assemble kingdoms,
in order to pour out my indignation(B) on them,
all my burning anger;
for the whole earth will be consumed
by the fire of my jealousy.(C)
Final Restoration Promised
9 For I will then restore
pure(D) speech to the peoples
so that all of them may call
on the name of the Lord
and serve him with a single purpose.[b]
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush(E)
my supplicants, my dispersed people,
will bring an offering to me.
