Zephaniah 1:4-6
World English Bible
4 I will stretch out my hand against Judah, and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place: the name of the idolatrous and pagan priests, 5 those who worship the army of the sky on the housetops, those who worship and swear by Yahweh and also swear by Malcam, 6 those who have turned back from following Yahweh, and those who haven’t sought Yahweh nor inquired after him.

Zephaniah 1:4-6
Christian Standard Bible
4 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;
5 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)
6 and those who turn back from following the Lord,
who do not seek the Lord or inquire of him.
