zephaniah 2:12 "You also, O Ethiopians, will be slain by My sword."

< Zephaniah 2:11
Zephaniah 2:13 >

      12. Fulfilled when Nebuchadnezzar (God's sword, Isa 10:5) conquered Egypt, with which Ethiopia was closely connected as its ally (Jer 46:2-9; Eze 30:5-9).
      Ye--literally, "They." The third person expresses estrangement; while doomed before God's tribunal in the second person, they are spoken of in the third as aliens from God.
