Zephaniah 1:14

⁵Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes.

³For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.

⁷Be silent at the presence of the Lord^[+] GOD, for the day of the LORD is at hand. For the LORD has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.

¹⁶For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,

⁷Behold, their valiant ones cry outside; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.

⁴Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them.

¹¹The LORD thunders his voice before his army, for his forces are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command; for the day of the LORD is great and very awesome, and who can endure it?

¹²The time has come! The day draws near. Don’t let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for wrath is on all its multitude.

⁴Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

⁵For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity from the Lord, GOD ^[+] of Armies, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”

⁹Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
