New International Version
Zephaniah 3:18-20
New International Version
18 “I will remove from you
all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals,
which is a burden and reproach for you.
19 At that time I will deal
with all who oppressed(A) you.
I will rescue the lame;
I will gather the exiles.(B)
I will give them praise(C) and honor
in every land where they have suffered shame.
20 At that time I will gather you;
at that time I will bring(D) you home.
I will give you honor(E) and praise(F)
among all the peoples of the earth
when I restore your fortunes[a](G)
before your very eyes,”
says the Lord.

18 “I will gather you who mourn for the appointed festivals;
you will be disgraced no more.[a]
19 And I will deal severely with all who have oppressed you.
I will save the weak and helpless ones;
I will bring together
those who were chased away.
I will give glory and fame to my former exiles,
wherever they have been mocked and shamed.
20 On that day I will gather you together
and bring you home again.
I will give you a good name, a name of distinction,
among all the nations of the earth,
as I restore your fortunes before their very eyes.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”
