“I will stretch out my hand against Judah
    and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
(A)and I will cut off from this place the remnant of Baal
    and the name of the idolatrous priests along with the priests,
(B)those who bow down on the roofs
    to the host of the heavens,
(C)those who bow down and swear to the Lord
    and yet swear by (D)Milcom,[a]
(E)those who have turned back from following the Lord,
    (F)who do not seek the Lord or inquire of him.”

  1. Zephaniah 1:5 Or their king

I will stretch out my hand(A) against Judah
and against all the residents of Jerusalem.
I will cut off every vestige of Baal(B)
from this place,
the names of the pagan priests(C)
along with the priests;
those who bow in worship on the rooftops(D)
to the stars in the sky;
those who bow and pledge loyalty to the Lord(E)
but also pledge loyalty to Milcom;[a](F)
and those who turn back from following the Lord,
who do not seek the Lord or inquire of him.
