The Day of the Lord Is Near
7 (A)Be silent before the Lord God!
For (B)the day of the Lord is near;
(C)the Lord has prepared a sacrifice
and (D)consecrated his guests.
8 And on the day of the Lord's sacrifice—
(E)“I will punish the officials and the king's sons
and (F)all who array themselves in foreign attire.
9 On that day I will punish
everyone (G)who leaps over the threshold,
and those who fill their master's[a] house
with violence and fraud.
