Ganito ang sabi ng Walang-Hanggan ng mga Hukbo, ang Diyos ng Israel: Dahil ikaw ay nagpadala ng mga sulat sa iyong sariling pangalan sa buong bayan na nasa Jerusalem, kay Sofonias na anak ni Maasias na saserdote, at sa lahat ng saserdote, na sinasabi:

As leave it alone - sometimes it is written and sometimes it is not written. And there is a homiletical teaching about it - from here, [we learn about] the four cubits of prayer.
