Zephaniah 1:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 In the same day also will I visit all those that [a]dance upon the threshold so proudly, which fill their masters’ houses by cruelty and deceit.
10 And in that day, saith the Lord, there shall be a noise, and cry from the [b]fish gate, and an howling from the second gate, and a great destruction from the hills.
11 Howl ye inhabitants of [c]the low place: for the company of the merchants is destroyed: all they that bear silver, are cut off.
