Judgments on Judah’s Enemies

2Gather yourselves together, yes, gather, O nation without shame,H7197H7197H1471H3700 2Before the decree takes effect— The day passes like the chaff— Before the burning anger of the LORD comes upon you, Before the day of the Lord's anger comes upon you.H2706H3205H3117H5674H4671H3808H2740H639H3068H935H3117H3068H639H935 3Seek the LORD, All you humble of the earth Who have carried out His ordinances; Seek righteousness, seek humility. Perhaps you will be hidden In the day of the Lord's anger.H1245H3068H6035H776H6466H4941H1245H6664H1245H6038H194H5641H3117H3068H639 4For Gaza will be abandoned, And Ashkelon a desolation; Ashdod will be driven out at noon, And Ekron will be uprooted.H5804H5800H831H8077H1644H795H6672H6138H6131 5Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, The nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; And I will destroy you, So that there will be no inhabitant.H1945H3427H3220H2256H1471H3774H1697H3068H3667H776H6430H6H3427 6So the seacoast will be pastures, [With] caves for shepherds and folds for flocks.H3220H2256H5116H3741H7462H1448H6629 7And the coast will be For the remnant of the house of Judah, They will pasture on it. In the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down at evening; For the LORD their God will care for them And restore their fortune.H2256H7611H1004H3063H7462H1004H831H7257H6153H3068H430H6485H7725H7622H7622 8"I have heard the taunting of Moab And the revilings of the sons of Ammon, With which they have taunted My people And become arrogant against their territory.H8085H2781H4124H1421H1121H5983H2778H5971H1431H1366 9"Therefore, as I live," declares the LORD of hosts, The God of Israel, "Surely Moab will be like Sodom, And the sons of Ammon like Gomorrah— A place possessed by nettles and salt pits, And a perpetual desolation. The remnant of My people will plunder them, And the remainder of My nation will inherit them."H2416H5002H3068H6635H430H3478H4124H5467H1121H5983H6017H4476H2738H4379H4417H5704H5769H8077H7611H5971H962H3499H1471H5157 10This they will have in return for their pride, because they have taunted and become arrogant against the people of the LORD of hosts.H1347H2778H1431H5971H3068H6635 11The LORD will be terrifying to them, for He will starve all the gods of the earth; and all the coastlands of the nations will bow down to Him, everyone from his [own] place.H3068H3372H7329H430H776H7812H376H4725H339H1471 12"You also, O Ethiopians, will be slain by My sword."H3569H1992H2491H2719 13And He will stretch out His hand against the north And destroy Assyria, And He will make Nineveh a desolation, Parched like the wilderness.H5186H3027H6828H6H804H7760H5210H8077H6723H4057 14And flocks will lie down in her midst, All beasts which range in herds; Both the pelican and the hedgehog Will lodge in the tops of her pillars; Birds will sing in the window, Desolation [will be] on the threshold; For He has laid bare the cedar work.H5739H7257H8432H2416H1471H6893H7090H3885H3730H6963H7891H2474H2721H5592H6168H731 15This is the exultant city Which dwells securely, Who says in her heart, "I am, and there is no one besides me." How she has become a desolation, A resting place for beasts! Everyone who passes by her will hiss [And] wave his hand [in contempt.]H5947H5892H3427H983H559H3824H657H8047H2416H4769H5674H8319H5128H3027
