1The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying , 2Son of man , set thy face against the Ammonites , and prophesy against them; 3And say unto the Ammonites , Hear the word of the Lord GOD ; Thus saith the Lord GOD ; Because thou saidst , Aha , against my sanctuary , when it was profaned ; and against the land of Israel , when it was desolate ; and against the house of Judah , when they went into captivity ; 4Behold, therefore I will deliver thee to the men of the east for a possession , and they shall set their palaces in thee, and make their dwellings in thee: they shall eat thy fruit , and they shall drink thy milk . 5And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels , and the Ammonites a couchingplace for flocks : and ye shall know that I am the LORD . 6For thus saith the Lord GOD ; Because thou hast clapped thine hands , and stamped with the feet , and rejoiced in heart with all thy despite against the land of Israel ; 7Behold, therefore I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and will deliver thee for a spoil to the heathen ; and I will cut thee off from the people , and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries : I will destroy thee; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD .
Judgment Against Moab
8Thus saith the Lord GOD ; Because that Moab and Seir do say , Behold, the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen ; 9Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities , from his cities which are on his frontiers , the glory of the country , Beth-jeshimoth , Baal-meon , and Kiriathaim , 10Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites , and will give them in possession , that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations . 11And I will execute judgments upon Moab ; and they shall know that I am the LORD .
Judgment Against Edom
12Thus saith the Lord GOD ; Because that Edom hath dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance , and hath greatly offended , and revenged himself upon them; 13Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ; I will also stretch out mine hand upon Edom , and will cut off man and beast from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman ; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword . 14And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel : and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and according to my fury ; and they shall know my vengeance , saith the Lord GOD .
Judgment Against Philistia
15Thus saith the Lord GOD ; Because the Philistines have dealt by revenge , and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart , to destroy it for the old hatred ; 16Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ; Behold, I will stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines , and I will cut off the Cherethims , and destroy the remnant of the sea coast . 17And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes ; and they shall know that I am the LORD , when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
