The
word of the
LORD came again unto me,
saying,

Son of

Ammonites*, and
prophesy against them;

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;

Behold, therefore I will
deliver thee to the
men of the

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

And I will

For thus
saith the
Lord GOD; Because thou hast
clapped thine
hands, and
stamped with the
feet, and
rejoiced in

despite against the

Israel;

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.

Thus
saith the

give them in

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;

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.

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.
