and Ashkelon will become a heap of ruins.
Invaders will drive away the people of Ashdod by noon,
and Ekron will be overthrown.
2:8 “I have heard Moab’s taunts
and the Ammonites’ insults.
They taunted my people
and verbally harassed those living in Judah.
2:10 This is how they will be repaid for their arrogance,
for they taunted and verbally harassed the people of the Lord who commands armies.
3:12 I will leave in your midst a humble and meek group of people,
and they will find safety in the Lord’s presence.
