6. Throw them into confusion and their mother into ruin. May they leave no descendants,
7. but be scattered among the nations! May their names be wiped out from the earth because they despised my covenant!
8. How terrible it will be for you, Assyria—you who are hiding the wicked in your midst! Evil city, remember what I did to Sodom and Gomorrah,
9. whose land was dragged down all the way to hell. I will do the same to those who haven’t obeyed me, says the almighty Lord.
10. The Lord said this to Ezra: Announce to my people that I have prepared a feast for them, and I will give them the kingdom of Jerusalem, which I was about to give to Israel.
