Zephaniah 1:13 in Context — Zephaniah 1
11 Lamentai, vós moradores do vale, porque todo o povo mercador está destruído; todos os que pesavam dinheiro são exterminados.
12 E será naquele tempo, que farei busca em Jerusalém com lâmpadas, e punirei os homens que estão acomodados como sedimentos de vinho, os quais dizem em seu coração: O SENHOR nem fará bem nem mal.
13 Por isso a riqueza deles será despojada, e suas casas serão arruinadas; edificarão casas, mas não habitarão nelas; e plantarão vinhas, mas não beberão seu vinho.
14 Perto está o grande dia do SENHOR; perto está, e com muita pressa se aproxima; a voz do Dia do SENHOR; ali o guerreiro gritará amargamente.
15 Aquele dia será dia de fúria; dia de angústia e de aflição, dia de devastação e de ruína; dia de trevas e de escuridão, dia de nuvens e de espessa obscuridade.
