Zephaniah 1:4-6
New King James Version
Zephaniah 1:4-6
New King James Version
4 “I will stretch out My hand against Judah,
And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
[a]I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place,
The names of the (A)idolatrous[b] priests with the pagan priests—
5 Those (B)who worship the host of heaven on the housetops;
Those who worship and swear oaths by the Lord,
But who also swear (C)by [c]Milcom;
6 (D)Those who have turned back from following the Lord,
And (E)have not sought the Lord, nor inquired of Him.”
