2:7 Those who are left from the kingdom of Judah ¹  will take possession of it. ² 

By the sea ³  they ⁴  will graze,

in the houses of Ashkelon they will lie down in the evening,

for the Lord their God will intervene for them ⁵  and restore their prosperity. ⁶ 

2:9 Therefore, as surely as I live,” says the Lord who commands armies, the God of Israel,

“be certain that Moab will become like Sodom

and the Ammonites like Gomorrah.

They will be overrun by weeds, ⁷ 

filled with salt pits, ⁸ 

and permanently desolate.

Those of my people who are left ⁹  will plunder their belongings; ¹⁰ 

those who are left in Judah ¹¹  will take possession of their land.”
