1And the word<1697> of the LORD<3068> came<1961> to me saying<559>,
2"Son<1121> of man<120>, set<7760> your face<6440> toward<413> the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983> and prophesy<5012> against<5921> them,
3and say<559> to the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983>, 'Hear<8085> the word<1697> of the Lord<136> GOD<3068>! Thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Because<3282> you said<559>, 'Aha<1889>!' against<413> My sanctuary<4720> when<3588> it was profaned<2490>, and against<413> the land<127> of Israel<3478> when<3588> it was made<8074> desolate<8074>, and against<413> the house<1004> of Judah<3063> when<3588> they went<1980> into exile<1473>,
4therefore<3651>, behold<2009>, I am going to give<5414> you to the sons<1121> of the east<6924> for a possession<4181>, and they will set<3427> their encampments<2918> among you and make<5414> their dwellings<4908> among you; they will eat<398> your fruit<6529> and drink<8354> your milk<2461>.
5"I will make<5414> Rabbah<7237> a pasture<5116> for camels<1581> and the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983> a resting<4769> place<4769> for flocks<6629>. Thus you will know<3045> that I am the LORD<3068>."
6'For thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Because<3282> you have clapped<4222> your hands<3027> and stamped<7554> your feet<7272> and rejoiced<8055> with all<3605> the scorn<7589> of your soul<5315> against<413> the land<127> of Israel<3478>,
7therefore<3651>, behold<2009>, I have stretched<5186> out My hand<3027> against<5921> you and I will give<5414> you for spoil<957> to the nations<1471>. And I will cut<3772> you off<3772> from the peoples<5971> and make you perish<6> from the lands<776>; I will destroy<8045> you. Thus you will know<3045> that I am the LORD<3068>."
8'Thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Because<3282> Moab<4124> and Seir<8165> say<559>, 'Behold<2009>, the house<1004> of Judah<3063> is like all<3605> the nations<1471>,'
9therefore<3651>, behold<2009>, I am going to deprive<6605> the flank<3802> of Moab<4124> of its cities<5892>, of its cities<5892> which are on its frontiers<7097>, the glory<6643> of the land<776>, Beth-jeshimoth<1020>, Baal-meon<1186> and Kiriathaim<7156>,
10and I will give<5414> it for a possession<4181> along<5921> with the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983> to the sons<1121> of the east<6924>, so<4616> that the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983> will not be remembered<2142> among the nations<1471>.
11"Thus I will execute<6213> judgments<8201> on Moab<4124>, and they will know<3045> that I am the LORD<3068>."
12'Thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Because<3282> Edom<112> has acted<6213> against the house<1004> of Judah<3063> by taking<5358> vengeance<5359>, and has incurred<816> grievous<816> guilt<816>, and avenged<5358> themselves upon them,"
13therefore<3651> thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "I will also stretch<5186> out My hand<3027> against<5921> Edom<112> and cut<3772> off<3772> man<120> and beast<929> from it. And I will lay<5414> it waste<2723>; from Teman<8487> even to Dedan<1719> they will fall<5307> by the sword<2719>.
14"I will lay<5414> My vengeance<5360> on Edom<112> by the hand<3027> of My people<5971> Israel<3478>. Therefore, they will act<6213> in Edom<112> according to My anger<639> and according to My wrath<2534>; thus they will know<3045> My vengeance<5360>," declares<5002> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>.
15'Thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Because<3282> the Philistines<6430> have acted<6213> in revenge<5360> and have taken<5358> vengeance<5359> with scorn<7589> of soul<5315> to destroy<4889> with everlasting<5769> enmity<342>,"
16therefore<3651> thus<3541> says<559> the Lord<136> GOD<3068>, "Behold<2009>, I will stretch<5186> out My hand<3027> against<5921> the Philistines<6430>, even cut<3772> off<3772> the Cherethites<3774> and destroy<6> the remnant<7611> of the seacoast<3220><2348>.
17"I will execute<6213> great<1419> vengeance<5360> on them with wrathful<2534> rebukes<8433>; and they will know<3045> that I am the LORD<3068> when I lay<5414> My vengeance<5360> on them."'"
