Zephaniah 2
8 “I have heard the reproach of Moab and the insults of the Ammonites, who have taunted My people and threatened their borders.
9 Therefore, as surely as I live,” declares the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, “surely Moab will be like Sodom and the Ammonites like Gomorrah—a place of weeds and salt pits, a perpetual wasteland. The remnant of My people will plunder them; the remainder of My nation will dispossess them.”
10 This they shall have in return for their pride, for taunting and mocking the people of the LORD of Hosts.

12 “You too, O Cushites, will be slain by My sword.”
