1
And the word of Jehovah was unto▵ me, saying,
2
Son of man, set thy face against▵ the sons of Ammon, and prophesy against them;
3
and say unto the sons of Ammon, Hear the word of the Lord Jehovih*; Thus says the Lord Jehovih; Because thou didst say, Aha, against▵ My sanctuary, when◦ it was··profaned; and against▵ the ground of Israel, when◦ it was desolate; and against▵ the house of Judah, when◦ they went◦ into exile;
4
therefore, behold, I will give thee to the sons of the east for a possession, and they shall dwell in thee with their rows, and put◦ their habitations in thee; they◦ shall eat thy fruit, and they◦ shall drink thy milk.
5
And I will give Rabbah for a home of camels, and the sons of Ammon a place· for flocks ·to··lie··down◦; and you shall know that I◦ am Jehovah.
6
For◦ thus says the Lord Jehovih; Because thou hast··clapped thy hands, and stamped* with the foot, and wast··glad in all thy contempt in thy soul against▵ the ground of Israel,
7
behold, therefore I will stretch··out My hand on thee, and will give thee for plunder to the nations; and I will cut· thee ·off from the peoples, and I will cause thee to perish from the lands; I will blot· thee ·out; and thou shalt know that I◦ am Jehovah.
8
Thus says the Lord Jehovih; Because Moab and Seir say, Behold, the house of Judah is as all the nations;
9
therefore, behold, I◦ am opening the shoulder◦ of Moab from the cities, from his cities, from his ends, the elegance of the land, Beth-jeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim,
10
unto the sons of the east with the sons of Ammon, and will give them for a possession, so··that the sons of Ammon may not be remembered among◦ the nations.
11
And I will make judgments on◦ Moab; and they shall know that I◦ am Jehovah.
12
Thus says the Lord Jehovih, Because Edom has done to the house of Judah by avenging with vengeance, and being··guilty is··guilty, and has avenged himself upon◦ them;
13
therefore thus says the Lord Jehovih; And I will stretch··out My hand on Edom, and will cut··off man and beast from her; and I will give her as a waste from Teman; and toward Dedan shall fall by the sword.
14
And I will put◦ My vengeance on◦ Edom by the hand of My people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according··to My anger and according··to My fury; and they shall know My vengeance, says◦ the Lord Jehovih.
15
Thus says the Lord Jehovih; Because the Philistines have done this with vengeance, and have avenged with vengeance with contempt in the soul, for destruction with eternal enmity,
16
therefore thus says the Lord Jehovih; Behold, I will stretch··out My hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut··off the Cherethites, and make· to ·perish what··is··left of the sea coast.
17
And I will make great vengeance upon◦ them with furious reprovings; and they shall know that I◦ am Jehovah, when I shall put◦ My vengeance upon◦ them.
