Zephaniah 3:1-3

International Children’s Bible

3 How terrible it will be for Jerusalem that hurts its own people.
    It’s a wicked, stubborn city.
² Her people don’t listen.
    They can’t be taught to do right.
They don’t trust the Lord.
    They don’t worship their God.
³ Their officers are like roaring lions.
    Their rulers are like hungry wolves that attack in the evening.
    In the morning nothing is left of those they attacked.
