Judgment on Judah’s Enemies

1Gather together, yes, gather,

O shameless nation,

2before the decree takes effect2:2 Hebrew gives birth

—before the day passes away like chaff—

before there comes upon you

the burning anger of the Lord,

before there comes upon you

the day of the anger of the Lord.

3Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,

who do his just commands;2:3 Or who carry out his judgment

seek righteousness; seek humility;

perhaps you may be hidden

on the day of the anger of the Lord.

4For Gaza shall be deserted,

and Ashkelon shall become a desolation;

Ashdod’s people shall be driven out at noon,

and Ekron shall be uprooted.

5Woe to you inhabitants of the seacoast,

you nation of the Cherethites!

The word of the Lord is against you,

O Canaan, land of the Philistines;

and I will destroy you until no inhabitant is left.

6And you, O seacoast, shall be pastures,

with meadows2:6 Or caves for shepherds

and folds for flocks.

7The seacoast shall become the possession

of the remnant of the house of Judah,

on which they shall graze,

and in the houses of Ashkelon

they shall lie down at evening.

For the Lord their God will be mindful of them

and restore their fortunes.

8“I have heard the taunts of Moab

and the revilings of the Ammonites,

how they have taunted my people

and made boasts against their territory.

9Therefore, as I live,” declares the Lord of hosts,

the God of Israel,

“Moab shall become like Sodom,

and the Ammonites like Gomorrah,

a land possessed by nettles and salt pits,

and a waste forever.

The remnant of my people shall plunder them,

and the survivors of my nation shall possess them.”

10This shall be their lot in return for their pride,

because they taunted and boasted

against the people of the Lord of hosts.

11The Lord will be awesome against them;

for he will famish all the gods of the earth,

and to him shall bow down,

each in its place,

all the lands of the nations.

12You also, O Cushites,

shall be slain by my sword.

13And he will stretch out his hand against the north

and destroy Assyria,

and he will make Nineveh a desolation,

a dry waste like the desert.

14Herds shall lie down in her midst,

all kinds of beasts;2:14 Hebrew beasts of every nation

even the owl and the hedgehog2:14 The identity of the animals rendered owl and hedgehog is uncertain

shall lodge in her capitals;

a voice shall hoot in the window;

devastation will be on the threshold;

for her cedar work will be laid bare.

15This is the exultant city

that lived securely,

that said in her heart,

“I am, and there is no one else.”

What a desolation she has become,

a lair for wild beasts!

Everyone who passes by her

hisses and shakes his fist.
