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.

  1. Zephaniah 3:20 Lit. a name

18 I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee,
to whom the reproach of it was a burden.
19 Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee:
and I will save her that halteth,
and gather her that was driven out;
and I will get them praise and fame
in every land where they have been put to shame.
20 At that time will I bring you again,
even in the time that I gather you:
for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth,
when I turn back your captivity before your eyes,
saith the Lord.
