Zephaniah 3:8-13
“For at that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech, that all of them may call upon the Name of the LORD and serve Him with one accord. From beyond the rivers of Cush My worshipers, the daughter of My dispersed ones, shall bring My offering. On that day you shall not be put to shame because of the deeds by which you have rebelled against Me; for then I will remove from your midst your proudly exultant ones, and you shall no longer be haughty in My holy mountain. But I will leave in your midst a people humble and lowly. They shall seek refuge in the Name of the LORD, those who are left in Israel; they shall do no injustice and speak no lies, nor shall there be found in their mouth a deceitful tongue. For they shall graze and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.” (ESV)
