Zephaniah 3:10

Final Restoration Promised

⁹ For then will I turn to the peoples a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of Jehovah, to serve him with one consent. ¹⁰ From beyond the rivers of Cush my suppliants, the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine oblation. ¹¹ In that day thou shalt not be ashamed for all thy doings wherein thou hast transgressed against me; for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that exult in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
