King James Version
"Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law."
— Zephaniah 3:4, King James Version
“Her prophets are light and treacherous persons; her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. ”
“Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.”
“Her prophets are proud; they are deceitful men. Her priests have defiled what is holy; they have broken God’s laws.”
“Her prophets are senseless, men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law.”
“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.”
“Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.”
Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God.
Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.
Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
The just Lord is in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.
I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.
I said, Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.
