Zephaniah 2:8-10
New King James Version
Zephaniah 2:8-10
New King James Version
8 “I(A) have heard the reproach of Moab,
And (B)the insults of the people of Ammon,
With which they have reproached My people,
And (C)made arrogant threats against their borders.
9 Therefore, as I live,”
Says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel,
“Surely (D)Moab shall be like Sodom,
And (E)the people of Ammon like Gomorrah—
(F)Overrun[a] with weeds and saltpits,
And a [b]perpetual desolation.
The residue of My people shall plunder them,
And the remnant of My people shall possess them.”
10 This they shall have (G)for their pride,
Because they have reproached and made arrogant threats
Against the people of the Lord of hosts.
