⁹ “Therefore, as I live”—a declaration of Yahweh of hosts,
    the God of Israel—
“Moab shall be as Sodom,
    and the Ammonites^[a] like Gomorrah,
a place of weeds and salt pits
    and a desolation forever.
The remnant of my people shall plunder them,
    and the remainder of my nation shall possess them.”
¹⁰ This shall be for them in place of their pride
    because they mocked and boasted
    against the people of Yahweh of hosts.
¹¹ Yahweh will be awesome against them,
    for he will destroy all the gods of the earth
and all the lands^[b] of the nations;
    each in its place will bow down to him.
