Zephaniah:2:8-15
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:8 @ "I have heard the reproach of Moab, And the insults of the people of Ammon, With which they have reproached My people, And made arrogant threats against their borders.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:9 @ Therefore, as I live," Says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Surely Moab shall be like Sodom, And the people of Ammon like Gomorrah-- Overrun with weeds and saltpits, And a perpetual desolation. The residue of My people shall plunder them, And the remnant of My people shall possess them."
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:10 @ This they shall have for their pride, Because they have reproached and made arrogant threats Against the people of the LORD of hosts.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:11 @ The LORD will be awesome to them, For He will reduce to nothing all the gods of the earth; People shall worship Him, Each one from his place, Indeed all the shores of the nations.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:12 @ "You Ethiopians also, You shall be slain by My sword."
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:13 @ And He will stretch out His hand against the north, Destroy Assyria, And make Nineveh a desolation, As dry as the wilderness.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:14 @ The herds shall lie down in her midst, Every beast of the nation. Both the pelican and the bittern Shall lodge on the capitals of her pillars; Their voice shall sing in the windows; Desolation shall be at the threshold; For He will lay bare the cedar work.
nkjv@Zephaniah:2:15 @ This is the rejoicing city That dwelt securely, That said in her heart, "I am it, and there is none besides me." How has she become a desolation, A place for beasts to lie down! Everyone who passes by her Shall hiss and shake his fist.
