25 Zephaniah

Heap

13 Isaiah 25:1-3
¹Yahvah, you are my god; I will praise your name; for you have done wonderful things, and given faithful counsel from far away, amen.
²For you have reduced a city to a heap, the fortified city to a ruin; the house of the strangers and the city are never to be built again.
³Therefore many peoples will praise you, the city of the mighty nations will worship you.

25 Zephaniah 1:2-3
²I will utterly remove all things from off the face of the land says Yahvah.
³I will remove man and animal; I will remove the birds of the air and the fish of the sea; I will bring a stumbling block against the wicked; and I will destroy man from the face of the land says Yahvah.

Refuge

13 Isaiah 25:4-5
⁴For you have been a strength to the poor, a helper to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat; for the blast of the mighty ones is as a storm against the wall.
⁵You will blot out the pride of aliens as the shadow at noonday, and as the heat is blotted out by the shade of a cloud; thus the branch of the mighty ones will be humbled.

25 Zephaniah 2:1-3
¹Gather yourselves, bind yourselves together, people without discipline;
²before you become like the chaff which is driven away, before the fierce anger of Yahvah comes on you, before the day of Yahvah's anger reaches you.
³Seek Yahvah, all you meek of the land, execute justice; seek righteousness and meekness; perhaps you may find refuge in the day of Yahvah's anger.

Mountain

13 Isaiah 25:6-8
⁶And on this mountain Yahvah of hosts will make for all peoples a lavish feast, a feast of old and rich wines, from the things that belong to our heavenly savior and the mighty one.
⁷And he will destroy on this mountain the prestige of the ruler who ruled over all the peoples, because of the slaughter which was made among all the peoples.
⁸He will swallow up death in victory forever; and Yahvah, master of hosts, will wipe away the tears from off all faces; and the disgrace of his people he will take away from off all the land; for Yahvah has spoken it.

25 Zephaniah 3:11-13
¹¹In that day, you will not be ashamed of all your actions in which you have transgressed against me; for then, I will remove from the middle of you the might of your pride, and you will not be haughty any longer because of my holy mountain.
¹²I will also leave in the middle of you an afflicted and humble people, and they will trust in the name of Yahvah.
¹³The remnant of Israel will not do iniquity, nor speak lies; nor will a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth; for they will feed and lie down, and no one will harm them.

Rejoice

13 Isaiah 25:9
⁹And it will be said on that day, Look, this is Yahvah our god; we have waited for him, and he will save us; this is Yahvah our god, we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

25 Zephaniah 3:14
¹⁴Sing, daughter of Zion; sound a trumpet, Israel; be glad and rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem.

Remove

13 Isaiah 25:10-26:0
¹⁰For on this mountain the hand of Yahvah will rest, and Moab will be trampled down under him, even as straw is trampled down with the threshing sled.
¹¹And he will spread forth his hands in the middle of them, as a swimmer spreads forth his hands to swim; and he will bring down their pride together with the spoils of their bands.
¹²And the fortress of treason of your rebellious men and your strong walls he will tear down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.

25 Zephaniah 3:15
¹⁵Yahvah has taken away your judgments, he has cast out your enemies; the king of Israel, even Yahvah, is in the middle of you; you will not see evil any longer.
