Zephaniah 1:7-13
New American Standard Bible
7 [a](A)Be silent before the Lord [b]God!
For the (B)day of the Lord is near,
Because the Lord has prepared a (C)sacrifice,
He has (D)consecrated His guests.
8 “Then it will come about on the day of the Lord’s sacrifice
That I will (E)punish the princes, the king’s sons,
And all who clothe themselves with (F)foreign garments.
9 And on that day I will punish all who leap on the temple threshold,
Who fill the house of their [c]lord with (G)violence and deceit.
10 And on that day,” declares the Lord,
“There will be the sound of a cry from the (H)Fish Gate,
Wailing from the [d](I)Second Quarter,
And a loud crash from the (J)hills.
11 Wail, you inhabitants of the [e]Mortar,
Because all the [f]people of (K)Canaan will be destroyed;
All who weigh out (L)silver will be eliminated.
12 And it will come about at that time
That I will (M)search Jerusalem with lamps,
And I will punish the people
Who are [g](N)stagnant in spirit,
Who say in their hearts,
‘The Lord will (O)not do good nor harm!’
13 Their wealth will become (P)plunder,
And their houses desolate;
Yes, (Q)they will build houses but not inhabit them,
And plant vineyards but not drink their wine.”

Christian Standard Bible
7 Be silent in the presence of the Lord God,(A)
for the day of the Lord is near.(B)
Indeed, the Lord has prepared a sacrifice;(C)
he has consecrated his guests.(D)
8 On the day of the Lord’s sacrifice
I will punish the officials, the king’s sons,
and all who are dressed in foreign clothing.
9 On that day(E) I will punish
all who skip over the threshold,[a](F)
who fill their master’s house
with violence and deceit.
10 On that day—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
there will be an outcry from the Fish Gate,(G)
a wailing from the Second District,(H)
and a loud crashing from the hills.
11 Wail, you residents of the Hollow,[b]
for all the merchants[c] will be silenced;
all those loaded with silver will be cut off.
12 And at that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps
and punish those who settle down comfortably,[d](I)
who say to themselves:
The Lord will do nothing—good or bad.(J)
13 Their wealth will become plunder
and their houses a ruin.
They will build houses but never live in them,
plant vineyards but never drink their wine.(K)
