Zephaniah 1:16

Judah's Impending Judgment

¹⁵ That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of waste and ruin, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, ¹⁶ a day of the ram's horn and alarm against the fortified cities, and against the high towers. ¹⁷ And I will bring distress on men, so that they shall walk with the blind, because they have sinned against Jehovah. And their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as dung.
