Zephaniah 2:9-11
GOD’S WORD Translation
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.
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.
Zephaniah 2:9-11
New International Version
9 Therefore, as surely as I live,”
declares the Lord Almighty,
the God of Israel,
“surely Moab(A) will become like Sodom,(B)
the Ammonites(C) like Gomorrah—
a place of weeds and salt pits,
a wasteland forever.
The remnant of my people will plunder(D) them;
the survivors(E) of my nation will inherit their land.(F)”
