CHAP. XXV.
A prophecy against the Ammonites,
Moabites, Edomites,
and Philistines, for their
malice against the Israelites.
1 And the word of the
Lord came to me, saying:
2 Son of man, set thy face
against the children of Ammon,
and thou shalt prophesy
of them.
3 And thou shalt say to the
children of Ammon: Hear
ye the word of the Lord God:
Thus saith the Lord God:
Because thou hast said: Ha,
ha, upon my sanctuary, because
it was profaned: and
upon the land of Israel, because
it was laid waste: and
upon the house of Juda, because
they are led into captivity:
4 Therefore will I deliver
thee to the men of the east
for an inheritance, and they
shall place their sheep-coats in
thee, and shall set up their
tents in thee: they shall eat
thy fruits: and they shall drink
thy milk.
5 And I will make note
Rabbath a stable for camels,
and the children of Ammon a
couching-place for flocks: and
you shall know that I am the
Lord.
6 For thus saith the Lord
God: Because thou hast clapped
thy hands and stamped
with thy foot, and hast rejoiced
with all thy heart against
the land of Israel:
7 Therefore behold I will
stretch forth my hand upon
thee, and will deliver thee to
be the spoil of nations, and
will cut thee off from among
the people, and destroy thee
out of the lands, and break
thee in pieces: and thou shalt
know that I am the Lord.
8 Thus saith the Lord God:
-- --
Because Moab and Seir have
said: Behold the house of Juda
is like all other nations:
9 Therefore behold I will
open the shoulder of Moab
from the cities, from his cities,
I say, and his borders, the
noble cities of the land of
Bethjesimoth, and Beelmeon,
and Cariathaim,
10 To the people of the
east with the children of Ammon,
and I will give it them
for an inheritance: that there
may be no more any remembrance
of the children of Ammon
among the nations.
11 And I will execute
judgments in Moab: and
they shall know that I am the
Lord.
12 Thus saith the Lord
God: Because Edom hath taken
vengeance to revenge herself
of the children of Juda, and
hath greatly offended, and hath
sought revenge of them:
13 Therefore thus saith the
Lord God: I will stretch forth
my hand upon Edom, and
will take away out of it man,
and beast, and will make it
desolate from the south: and
they that are in 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 my wrath, and my
fury: and they shall know my
vengeance, saith the Lord God.
15 Thus saith the Lord
God: Because the Philistines
have taken vengeance, and
have revenged themselves with
all their mind, destroying, and
satisfying old enmities:
16 Therefore thus saith the
Lord God: Behold I will
stretch forth my hand upon
the Philistines, and will kill
the killers, and will destroy
the remnant of the sea-coast.
17 And I will execute great
vengeance upon them, rebuking
them in fury: and they
shall know that I am the
Lord, when I shall lay my
vengeance upon them.
