## Zephaniah 1:6 in Context (Verses 3–9 KJV)
 
 [3 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/3) I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD.*
 
 [4 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/4) I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, *and* the name of the Chemarims with the priests;
 
 [5 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/5) And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship *and* that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham;*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/6) And them that are turned back from the LORD; and *those* that have not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/7) Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the LORD *is* at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bid his guests.*
 
 [8 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/8) And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD’s sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king’s children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel.*
 
 [9 ](/kjv/zephaniah/1/9) In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the threshold, which fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit.
