1:1 當猶大王亞們的兒子約西亞在位的時候,耶和華的話臨到希西家的玄孫,亞瑪利雅的曾孫,基大利的孫子,古示的兒子西番雅。
1:2 耶和華說:我必從地上除滅萬類。
1:3 我必除滅人和牲畜,與空中的鳥、海裡的魚,以及絆腳石和惡人;我必將人從地上剪除。這是耶和華說的。
The word of the Lord that came to Zephaniah
the son of Cushi, son of Gedaliah, son of Amariah, son of Hezekiah, in the days
of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah. “I will utterly sweep
away everything
from the face of the earth,” declares the
Lord.
“I will
sweep away man and beast;
I will sweep away the birds of the heavens
and the fish of the sea,
and the rubble with the wicked.
I will cut off mankind
from the face of the earth,” declares the
Lord.

西番雅是在約西亞在位的時候做先知,正值猶大宗教復興之前的黑暗時期。所以,內容中充滿審判。
