Ezekiel:
Chapter 25
1. 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
couchingplace 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, Beth-jesh-i-moth,
Ba-al-me-on, and Kir-i-a-tha-im,
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 Cher-e-thims, 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.
