Zephaniah the prophet: he was of the tribe of Simeon, from Mount Sarabatha; and he prophesied concerning the city of Jerusalem, that it would be built up to something better in length and breadth, and concerning the end of the nations and the shame of the impious, and concerning the coming of the Lord.

2And he died in a revelation of the Lord, and was buried in his own field, quite alone.
