Zephaniah 1:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 “And I will stretch out my hand against Judah
and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
And I will cut off from this place
the remnant of Baal,
and the name of idolatrous priests with the priests,[a]
5 and those who bow down on the rooftops
to the host of heaven,
and those who bow down, swearing to Yahweh
but also swearing by Milkom,[b]
6 and those who turned back from following[c] Yahweh,
and who did not seek Yahweh,
and did not inquire of him.”
