ZEP 2:15 This is the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in
her heart, I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a
desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by
her shall hiss, and wag his hand.
ZEP 3:1 Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
ZEP 3:2 She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she
trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.
ZEP 3:3 Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are
evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.

indeed.

because my word hath no place in you.

which ye have seen with your father.
