Zephaniah 3:11-17
New International Version
11 On that day you, Jerusalem, will not be put to shame(A)
for all the wrongs you have done to me,(B)
because I will remove from you
your arrogant boasters.(C)
Never again will you be haughty
on my holy hill.(D)
12 But I will leave within you
the meek(E) and humble.
The remnant of Israel
will trust(F) in the name of the Lord.
13 They(G) will do no wrong;(H)
they will tell no lies.(I)
A deceitful tongue
will not be found in their mouths.(J)
They will eat and lie down(K)
and no one will make them afraid.(L)”
14 Sing, Daughter Zion;(M)
shout aloud,(N) Israel!
Be glad and rejoice(O) with all your heart,
Daughter Jerusalem!
15 The Lord has taken away your punishment,
he has turned back your enemy.
The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you;(P)
never again will you fear(Q) any harm.(R)
16 On that day
they will say to Jerusalem,
“Do not fear, Zion;
do not let your hands hang limp.(S)
17 The Lord your God is with you,
the Mighty Warrior who saves.(T)
He will take great delight(U) in you;
in his love he will no longer rebuke you,(V)
but will rejoice over you with singing.”(W)

Zephaniah 3:11-17
King James Version
11 In that day shalt thou 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 rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
12 I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
14 Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
15 The Lord hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.
17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
