Zephaniah 3:2-4

Common English Bible

² She listened to no voice;
        she accepted no discipline.
She didn’t trust in the Lord,
        nor did she draw near to her God.
³ The princes in her midst are roaring lions.
        Her judges are wolves of the evening;
        they leave nothing for the morning.
⁴ Her prophets are reckless, men of treachery.
        Her priests pollute that which is holy;
        they do violence to the Instruction.
