Zephaniah 3:10-12
Complete Jewish Bible
10 Even from beyond Ethiopia’s rivers
they will bring those who petition me,
the daughter of my dispersed as my offering.
11 When that day comes, you will not be ashamed
of everything you have done,
committing wrongs against me;
for then I will remove from among you
those of you who take joy in arrogance;
you will no longer be full of pride
on my holy mountain.
12 I will leave among you
a poor and afflicted people,
who will find their refuge
in the name of Adonai.”
Zephaniah 3:10-12

New International Version
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush[a](A)
my worshipers, my scattered people,
will bring me offerings.(B)
11 On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame(C)
for all the wrongs you have done to me,(D)
because I will remove from you
your arrogant boasters.(E)
Never again will you be haughty
on my holy hill.(F)
12 But I will leave within you
the meek(G) and humble.
The remnant of Israel
will trust(H) in the name of the Lord.
