25 The
word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, 2 Son
of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them; 3 And
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; 4 Behold,
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. 5 And
I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couching place
for flocks: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. 6 For
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; 7 Behold,
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. 8 Thus
saith the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house
of Judah is like unto all the heathen;
9
Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his
cities which are on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Bethjeshimoth,
Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim, 10 Unto
the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession,
that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations. 11 And
I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am the LORD. 12 Thus
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; 13 Therefore
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. 14 And
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. 15 Thus
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; 16 Therefore
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. 17 And
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.
