Zephaniah 3:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 Her officials in her midst are roaring lions;
her judges are evening wolves;
they leave nothing until the morning.
4 Her prophets are arrogant men of treachery;
her priests have defiled that which is holy;
they do violence to the law.
5 Yahweh is righteous in her midst;
he does not do wickedness.
Morning by morning[a] he renders his judgment;
at dawn he does not fail,
but an evil one knows no shame.
