Ezekiel 25:10-17

10 and I will give it for a possession along with the sons of Ammon to the 1sons of the east, so that the sons of Ammon will not be remembered among the nations.
11 "Thus I will execute judgments on Moab, and they will know that I am the LORD."

Edom

12 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Because 2Edom has acted against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has incurred grievous guilt, and avenged themselves upon them,"
13 therefore thus says the Lord GOD, "I will also 3stretch out My hand against Edom and 4cut off man and beast from it. And I will lay it waste; from 5Teman even to 6Dedan they will fall by the sword.
14 "7I will lay My vengeance on Edom by the hand of My people Israel. Therefore, they will act in Edom 8according to My anger and according to My wrath; thus they will know My vengeance," declares the Lord GOD.

Philistia

15 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Because the Philistines have acted in 9revenge and have taken vengeance with scorn of soul to destroy with everlasting enmity,"
16 therefore thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I will 10stretch out My hand against the Philistines, even cut off the 11Cherethites and destroy the remnant of the seacoast *.
17 "I will execute great vengeance on them with wrathful rebukes; and they will 12know that I am the LORD when I lay My vengeance on them.""'
