Ezekiel 25:1-7

New American Standard Bible

Judgment on Gentile Nations—Ammon

25 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ² “Son of man, set your face against the ^(A)sons of Ammon and prophesy against them, ³ and say to the sons of Ammon, ‘Hear the word of the Lord ^[a]God! This is what the Lord God says: “Because you said, ‘^(B)Aha!’ against My sanctuary when it was profaned, and against the land of Israel when it was made desolate, and against the house of Judah when they went into exile, ⁴ therefore, behold, I am going to give you to the ^[b](C)people of the east as a possession, and they will set up their encampments among you and make their dwellings among you; they will ^(D)eat your fruit and drink your milk. ⁵ I will make ^(E)Rabbah a pasture for camels, and the sons of Ammon a resting place for flocks. Then you will know that I am the Lord.” ⁶ For this is what the Lord God says: “Because you have ^(F)clapped your hands and stamped your feet, and have ^(G)rejoiced with all the malice in your soul against the land of Israel, ⁷ therefore, behold, I have ^(H)reached out with My hand against you and I will give you as ^(I)plunder to the nations. And I will ^(J)cut you off from the peoples and ^(K)eliminate you from the lands. I will exterminate you. So you will ^(L)know that I am the Lord.”
