Zephaniah 2:11-13
GOD’S WORD Translation

11 The Lord will terrify them,
because he will make all the gods of the earth waste away.
So every person from every coast and nation will bow to him.

12 “Even you, the people from Sudan,
you will also die by my sword.”

13 The Lord will use his power against the north and destroy Assyria.
He will turn Nineveh into a deserted ruin,
a dried up wasteland like the desert.
