Jeremiah 49:1-2
English Standard Version
Judgment on Ammon
49 (A)Concerning the Ammonites.
Thus says the Lord:
“Has Israel no sons?
Has he no heir?
Why then has (B)Milcom[a] (C)dispossessed Gad,
and his people settled in its cities?
2 Therefore, behold, the days are coming,
declares the Lord,
when I will cause (D)the battle cry to be heard
against (E)Rabbah of the Ammonites;
it shall become a desolate (F)mound,
and its villages shall be burned with fire;
then Israel shall dispossess those who dispossessed him,
says the Lord.

Zephaniah 2:8-9
English Standard Version
8 “I have heard (A)the taunts of Moab
and (B)the revilings of the Ammonites,
how they have taunted my people
and made boasts (C)against their territory.
9 Therefore, (D)as I live,” declares the Lord of hosts,
the God of Israel,
“Moab shall become (E)like Sodom,
and the Ammonites (F)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.”
