8 I have heard the taunts uttered by Moab, and the insults of the Ammonites, When they taunted my people and made boasts against their territory. 9 Therefore, as I live— oracle of the LORD of hosts— the God of Israel, Moab shall become like Sodom, the Ammonites like Gomorrah: A field of weeds, a salt pit, a waste forever. The remnant of my people shall plunder them, the survivors of my nation dispossess them. 10 This will be the recompense for their pride, because they taunted and boasted against the people of the LORD of hosts. 11 The LORD shall inspire them with terror when he makes all the gods of earth waste away; Then the distant shores of the nations, each from its own place, shall bow down to him.
