Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, Who are in the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: ‘Bring in, and we do drink.’

Zephaniah 3:12 (100.00%)

But I will leave among you an afflicted and poor people, and they will take refuge in Yahweh’s name.

I will also leave H7604 (8689) in the midst H7130 of thee an afflicted H6041 and poor H1800 people H5971, and they shall trust H2620 (8804) in the name H8034 of the LORD H3068.

And I have left in thy midst a people humble and poor, And they have trusted in the name of Jehovah.
