8 “I have heard the areproach of Moab
And the brevilings of the sons of Ammon,
With which they have reproached My people
And cmagnified themselves against their territory.
9 Therefore, as I live,” declares Yahweh of hosts,
The God of Israel,
“Surely aMoab will be like bSodom
And the sons of cAmmon like dGomorrah—
A place possessed by nettles and salt pits,
And a perpetual desolation.
The remnant of My people will eplunder them,
And the remainder of My nation will inherit them.”
