Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off.
Lloren, habitantes del distrito comercial, porque todos los comerciantes han sido destruidos, toda la gente que maneja dinero se ha ido.
Los habitantes del distrito comercial deben lamentar porque todos los comerciantes y quienes manejan dinero han sido eliminados.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Zephaniah was a prophet in Judah during the reign of King Josiah, around 640-609 BC, delivering warnings of God's judgment on the nation's widespread idolatry and moral decay. The verse targets the inhabitants of Maktesh, likely a commercial area in Jerusalem known for its markets, where merchants and those handling silver represented the wealthy elite. This prophecy foretold the destruction of these groups as part of God's broader judgment on Judah's injustices, pointing to events like the Babylonian invasion.
