Ezekiel 25:1-6

Against the neighboring nations

1 The LORD's word came to me:

2 Human one, face the Ammonites and prophesy against them.

3 Say to the Ammonites: Hear the LORD God's word! The LORD God proclaims: You laughed when my sanctuary was degraded, when Israel's fertile land was laid waste, and when the house of Judah went into exile;

5 I'll make Rabbah into pastureland for camels and Ammon a resting place for flocks. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
