YAHWEH has canceled out his judgments against you. He has turned your accuser away. YAHWEH, your King, is here within you, Israel; you have nothing more to fear. On that day, the message for Jerusalem will be: Zion, do not yield to fear. Don’t let your heart be discouraged. YAHWEH, your God, is inside you. He is the Warrior-Savior who takes such delight in you that it will make him leap for joy and shout with great gladness. Yes, he will soothe you with his love. He will sing over you his song of praise. “I will remove the sadness over your appointed feasts, and you will not be ashamed about them again. Behold, at the right time, I will deal with those who mistreat you. I will rescue the weak and regather the scattered ones. I will turn their shame into praise when I restore their honor across the land.

Zephaniah prophesied about a coming “day of the Lord,” when God will pour out His wrath on those who persist in their wickedness. Zephaniah reminds us that although the coming judgment of the Lord is severe, God stands ready to save those who trust in Him.
