Zephaniah 2:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
2 1 He moveth to return to God, 5 prophesying destruction against the Philistines, Moabites and others.
1 Gather [a]yourselves, even gather you, O nation not worthy to be loved,
2 Before the decree come forth, and ye be as chaff that passeth in a day, and before the fierce wrath of the Lord come upon you, and before the day of the Lord’s anger come upon you.
3 Seek ye the Lord all the meek of the earth, which [b]have wrought his judgment: seek righteousness, seek lowliness, if so be that ye may be hid in the day of the Lord’s wrath.
