Yahweh will punish Moab and Ammon

8 The Commander of the armies of angels, the God to whom we Israeli people belong, says this:

“I have heard the people of Moab and Ammon

when they insulted [DOU] my people,

and when they said that they would conquer my people’s country.

9 So now, as surely as I live, I will destroy Moab and Ammon

like [SIM] I destroyed Gomorrah city.

Their land will be a place were there are nettles and salt pits;

it will be ruined forever.

My Israeli people who survive will take away all their valuable possessions

and also occupy their land.”

10 The people of Moab and Ammon will get what they deserve for being proud,

because they made fun of the people who belong to the Commander of the armies of angels.

11 Yahweh will cause them to be terrified

when he destroys all the gods of their countries.

Then even the people who live on islands throughout the world will worship Yahweh,

each in their own countries.
