Zephaniah 2 · Grade 4

Seek Righteousness, Seek Humility

Name Date

Read and Think

Zephaniah urges Judah to gather together before the day of Yahweh's anger. Then he speaks to the faithful: seek Yahweh, 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 Yahweh's anger.

God turns to the nations around Judah, west, east, south, and north. Philistia, Moab, Ammon, Cush, and Assyria each faced judgment. God says, I have heard the reproach of Moab and the insults of the children of Ammon. They had magnified themselves against his people, and pride brought them down.

There is hope in the chapter too. The remnant of Judah will find pasture on the coast, for Yahweh will visit them and restore their fortunes. Verse 11 says people will worship him, everyone from his place, even all the shores of the nations. Nineveh, the joyous city that said there is no one besides me, would become a quiet pasture.
