Zephaniah 2:9-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 Therefore, as I live, says the Lord of hosts,
the God of Israel,
Moab shall become like Sodom
and the Ammonites like Gomorrah,
a land possessed by nettles and salt pits
and a waste forever.
The remnant of my people shall plunder them,
and the survivors of my nation shall possess them.(A)
10 This shall be their lot in return for their pride,
because they scoffed and boasted
against the people of the Lord of hosts.(B)
11 The Lord will be terrible against them;
he will shrivel all the gods of the earth,
and to him shall bow down
each in its place,
all the coasts and islands of the nations.(C)
