Ammon
13 (A)The Lord says, “The people of Ammon have sinned again and again, and for this I will certainly punish them. In their wars for more territory they even ripped open pregnant women in Gilead. 14 So I will send fire upon the city walls of Rabbah and burn down its fortresses. Then there will be shouts on the day of battle, and the fighting will rage like a storm. 15 Their king and his officers will go into exile.”

13 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Ammon,(A)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he ripped open the pregnant women(B) of Gilead
in order to extend his borders,
14 I will set fire to the walls of Rabbah(C)
that will consume(D) her fortresses
amid war cries(E) on the day of battle,
amid violent winds(F) on a stormy day.
15 Her king[a] will go into exile,
he and his officials together,(G)”
says the Lord.(H)
