Bible in Basic English
"She gave no attention to the voice, she had no use for teaching, she put no faith in the Lord, she did not come near to her God."
— Zephaniah 3:2, Bible in Basic English
“She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God.”
“She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God. ”
“She didn't obey the voice. She didn't receive correction. She didn't trust in Yahweh. She didn't draw near to her God.”
Sorrow to her who is uncontrolled and unclean, the cruel town!
She gave no attention to the voice, she had no use for teaching, she put no faith in the Lord, she did not come near to her God.
Her rulers are like loud-voiced lions in her; her judges are wolves of the evening, crushing up the bones before the morning.
Her prophets are good-for-nothing persons, full of deceit: her priests have made the holy place unclean and have gone violently against the law.
The Lord in her is upright; he will not do evil; every morning he lets his righteousness be seen, he is unchanging; but the evil-doer has no sense of shame.
