Zephaniah 1:17

Judah's Impending Judgment

¹⁶ a day of trumpet and [trumpet] blast against the fortified cities and against the high corner towers. ¹⁷ And I will bring distress to all humankind, and they shall walk about like the blind, for they sinned against Yahweh; their blood shall be poured out like dust and their entrails like dung. ¹⁸ Moreover, their silver and their gold will not be able to save them on the day of the wrath of Yahweh. And in the fire of his zeal, the whole land shall be consumed, for a terrifying end he shall make [for] all the inhabitants of the land.
