25Ezekiel 25

1The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,Select Ezekiel 25:1

2Son of man, set your face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;Select Ezekiel 25:2

3And say to the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus says the Lord GOD; Because you said, 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;Select Ezekiel 25:3

4Behold, therefore I will deliver you to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in you, and make their dwellings in you: they shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk.Select Ezekiel 25:4

5And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the LORD.Select Ezekiel 25:5

6For thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have clapped your hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all your despite against the land of Israel;Select Ezekiel 25:6

7Behold, therefore I will stretch out my hand on you, and will deliver you for a spoil to the heathen; and I will cut you off from the people, and I will cause you to perish out of the countries: I will destroy you; and you shall know that I am the LORD. ¶Select Ezekiel 25:7

8Thus says the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like to all the heathen;Select Ezekiel 25:8

9Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Bethjeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim,Select Ezekiel 25:9

10To the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations.Select Ezekiel 25:10

11And I will execute judgments on Moab; and they shall know that I am the LORD. ¶Select Ezekiel 25:11

12Thus says the Lord GOD; Because that Edom has dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has greatly offended, and revenged himself on them;Select Ezekiel 25:12

13Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; I will also stretch out my hand on 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.Select Ezekiel 25:13

14And I will lay my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, says the Lord GOD. ¶Select Ezekiel 25:14

15Thus says the Lord GOD; Because the Philistines have dealt by revenge, and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart, to destroy it for the old hatred;Select Ezekiel 25:15

16Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will stretch out my hand on the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast.Select Ezekiel 25:16

17And I will execute great vengeance on them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance on them.Select Ezekiel 25:17
