Zephaniah 1:16

Judah's Impending Judgment

¹⁵ That day will be a day of wrath, a day of distress and anguish. That day will be a day of trouble, devastation and desolation! It will be a day of darkness and gloom. Indeed that day will be a day of clouds and overcast skies. ¹⁶ A day of trumpet and battle cry
Against the fortified cities
And the high corner towers.
¹⁷ I will bring distress on humans and they will walk like they are blind! They have sinned against Jehovah! Their blood will be poured out like dust and their intestines like manure.
