What does Zephaniah 1:4-8 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests;
And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship and that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham;
And them that are turned back from the LORD; and those that have not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him.
Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the LORD is at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bidb his guests.
And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD'S sacrifice, that I will punishc the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel.
