2“Son of man,b set your face toward the Ammonitesc and prophesy against them, 3and you must say to the Ammonites,d ‘Hear the word of the Lord Yahweh! Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Because of your saying, ‘Ah!’ to my sanctuary when it was profaned, and to the land of Israel when it wase desolate, and to the house of Judah when they went into the exile, 4therefore look! I am giving you to the peoplef of the East as a possession, and they will set up their encampments in you, and they will make in you their dwelling places; they themselvesg will eat your fruit and they themselvesh will drink your milk. 5And I will make Rabbah as a pasture of camels and the Ammonitesi as a haunt of flocks, and they will know that I am Yahweh.” ’ ” 6For thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Because of clapping your hand and stamping with your foot, and because you rejoiced inj yourself with all of your malice over the land of Israel, 7therefore look! I stretched out my hand against you, and I will give you as plunderk to the nations, and I will cut you off from the peoples, and I will destroy you from the countries, and I will wipe you out, and you will know that I am Yahweh.”

8Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Because of Moab and Seir saying, ‘The house of Judah is like all of the nations,’ 9therefore, look! I am opening the side ofl Moab from the cities on its frontier, the glory of the land: Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim. 10I will give it to the peoplem of the East in addition to the Ammonitesn as a possession, so that the Ammoniteso will not be remembered among the nations.
