MSG(1-5)Doom to the rebellious city,
  the home of oppressors—Sewer City!
The city that wouldn’t take advice,
  wouldn’t accept correction,
Wouldn’t trust God,
  wouldn’t even get close to her own god!
Her very own leaders
  are rapacious lions,
Her judges are rapacious timber wolves
  out every morning prowling for a fresh kill.
Her prophets are out for what they can get.
  They’re opportunists—you can’t trust them.
Her priests desecrate the Sanctuary.
  They use God’s law as a weapon to maim and kill souls.
Yet God remains righteous in her midst,
  untouched by the evil.
He stays at it, day after day, meting out justice.
  At evening he’s still at it, strong as ever.
But evil men and women, without conscience
  and without shame, persist in evil.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

3:1-8 Zephaniah pronounces a message of sorrow for Judah and Jerusalem and admonishes them to wait patiently for the results of God’s righteous judgment.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

לֹ֤א שָֽׁמְעָה֙ בְּ⁠ק֔וֹל

not listens in/on/at/with,voice

Zephaniah is using the term heard in a specific sense to mean “obeyed.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “She does not obey the voice”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לֹ֤א שָֽׁמְעָה֙ בְּ⁠ק֔וֹל

not listens in/on/at/with,voice

The term voice could mean: (1) the voice of Yahweh, that is, the message Yahweh has been sending to the people of Jerusalem through his prophets telling the people to repent. Alternate translation: “She has not obeyed Yahweh’s command to repent” (2) the voice of anyone who has been warning the people of the city that their wicked behavior will have destructive consequences. Alternate translation: “She does not listen to anyone who tries to warn her”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אֶל־אֱלֹהֶ֖י⁠הָ לֹ֥א קָרֵֽבָה

to/towards God,her not draw_near

Zephaniah is speaking as if the city of Jerusalem, meaning its people, could literally have drawn near to God, that is, moved closer to a place where God was. He means that they could have and should have worshiped God sincerely. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “she does not worship her God sincerely”
