Zephaniah 1:6

Judah's Impending Judgment

⁵ And them who bow down upon the housetops to the host of the heavens, - and them who bow down - who swear to Yahweh, and swear by Milcom; ⁶ And them who turn away from following Yahweh, - and have neither sought Yahweh, nor enquired for him. ⁷ Hush! at the presence of My Lord, Yahweh, - for, near, is the day of Yahweh, for Yahweh hath prepared his sacrifice, hath hallowed his guests.
