Zephaniah 2:6-8
New American Standard Bible 1995
6 So the seacoast will be (A)pastures,
With [a]caves for shepherds and folds for flocks.
7 And the coast will be
For the (B)remnant of the house of Judah,
They will (C)pasture on it.
In the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down at evening;
For the Lord their God will (D)care for them
And (E)restore their fortune.
8 “I have heard the [b](F)taunting of Moab
And the (G)revilings of the sons of Ammon,
With which they have [c]taunted My people
And [d](H)become arrogant against their territory.
