Zephaniah 2:8-10

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸ “I have heard the insults from Moab and the mockery from Ammon.
They insulted my people and bragged about their territory.
⁹ Therefore, I solemnly swear, as I live,”
declares the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel,
“Moab will become like Sodom, and Ammon will become like Gomorrah:
a place of weeds, salt pits, and ruins forever.
The faithful few of my people will loot them,
and those who are left in my nation will take possession of them.”

¹⁰ This is what they will get for their sinful pride,
because they insulted the people who belong to the Lord of Armies
and made themselves greater than them.
