Zephaniah 3:18-20
Christian Standard Bible
18 I will gather those who have been driven(A)
from the appointed festivals;
they will be a tribute from you[a]
and a reproach on her.[b]
19 Yes, at that time
I will deal with all who oppress you.
I will save the lame(B) and gather the outcasts;(C)
I will make those who were disgraced
throughout the earth
receive praise and fame.
20 At that time I will bring you[c] back,
yes, at the time I will gather you.
I will give you fame and praise
among all the peoples of the earth,
when I restore your fortunes(D) before your eyes.
The Lord has spoken.
Zephaniah 3:18-20
Common English Bible
18 I will remove from you those worried about the appointed feasts.[a]
They have been a burden for her, a reproach.
19 Watch what I am about to do to all your oppressors at that time.
I will deliver the lame;
I will gather the outcast.
I will change their shame into praise and fame throughout the earth.
20 At that time, I will bring all of you back,
at the time when I gather you.
I will give you fame and praise among all the neighboring peoples
when I restore your possessions and you can see them[b]—says the Lord.
