Zephaniah 1:17
| ← Zephaniah 1:16 | Zephaniah 1:17 (KJV) | Zephaniah 1:18 → |
|---|---|---|
A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.
|
And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
|
Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.
