Zephaniah 1:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 “So I will (A)stretch out My hand against Judah
And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
And I will (B)eliminate the remnant of Baal from this place,
And the names of the (C)idolatrous priests along with the other priests.
5 And those who bow down on the (D)housetops to the heavenly [a]lights,
And those who bow down and (E)swear to the Lord, but also swear by [b](F)Milcom,
6 And those who have (G)turned back from following the Lord,
And those who have (H)not sought the Lord nor inquired of Him.”

Zephaniah 1:4-6
New Living Translation
4 “I will crush Judah and Jerusalem with my fist
and destroy every last trace of their Baal worship.
I will put an end to all the idolatrous priests,
so that even the memory of them will disappear.
5 For they go up to their roofs
and bow down to the sun, moon, and stars.
They claim to follow the Lord,
but then they worship Molech,[a] too.
6 And I will destroy those who used to worship me
but now no longer do.
They no longer ask for the Lord’s guidance
or seek my blessings.”
Notas al pie
- 1:5 Hebrew Malcam, a variant spelling of Molech; or it could possibly mean their king.
