Zephaniah 3:9-13

Purification and Restoration of the Remnant

9
Because then I will restore to the people a chosen lip, that all may call upon the name of the Lord, and may serve him with one shoulder.
10
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, shall my suppliants, the children of my dispersed people, bring me an offering.
11
In that day thou shalt not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me for then I will take away out of the midst of thee thy proud boasters, and thou shalt no more be lifted up because of my holy mountain.
12
And I will leave in the midst of thee a poor and needy people: and they shall hope in the name of the Lord.
13
The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies, nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed, and shall lie down, and there shall be none to make them afraid.
