Zephaniah 2:2
Verse 2 of 15. The 2nd of 3 chapters in Zephaniah, in The Minor Prophets.
1Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, you nation that has no shame,
2before the appointed time when the day passes as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD comes on you, before the day of the LORD’s anger comes on you.
3Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, who have kept his ordinances. Seek righteousness. Seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden in the day of the LORD’s anger.
4For Gaza will be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation. They will drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron will be rooted up.
5Woe to the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! The LORD’s word is against you, Canaan, the land of the Philistines. I will destroy you until there is no inhabitant.
6The sea coast will be pastures, with cottages for shepherds and folds for flocks.
