The Great Day of the Lord
I will consume the birds of the heavens,
The fish of the sea,
And the1 stumbling blocks along with the wicked.
I will cut off man from the face of the1 land,”
Says the Lord.
And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
1I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place,
The names of the aidolatrous priests with the pagan priests—
Those who worship and swear oaths by the Lord,
But who also swear bby Milcom;
And bhave not sought the Lord, nor inquired of Him.”
bFor the day of the Lord is at hand,
For cthe Lord has prepared a sacrifice;
He has1 invited His guests.
In the day of the Lord’s sacrifice,
That I will punish athe princes and the king’s children,
And all such as are clothed with foreign apparel.

Zephaniah 1:2
I will utterly consume all things - All being now ripe for destruction, I will shortly bring a universal scourge upon the land. He speaks particularly of the idolaters.
