Zephaniah 3:18-20
Lexham English Bible
18 I will gather those of you grieving on account of the feast;
they were raising against her a reproach.
19 Behold, at that time I will deal with all your oppressors;
I will save the lame and gather the outcast.
I will change[a] them from shame
to glory and renown[b] throughout the whole world.
20 At that time I will bring you in;
at the time of my gathering you together.
For I will make you renowned[c] and praised
among all the nations of the earth
when I restore your fortunes before your eyes,”
says Yahweh.

18 “I will gather those who (A)sorrow over the appointed assembly,
Who are among you,
To whom its reproach is a burden.
19 Behold, at that time
I will deal with all who afflict you;
I will save the (B)lame,
And gather those who were driven out;
I will appoint them for praise and fame
In every land where they were put to shame.
20 At that time (C)I will bring you back,
Even at the time I gather you;
For I will give you [a]fame and praise
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I return your captives before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.
