Ezekiel 25

25
Prophecies Against the Nations
Judgment against Ammon
1Then the word of the Lord came to me: 2“Son of man, turn your face toward the Ammonites and prophesy against them. # Jr 49:1-6 3Say to the Ammonites: Hear the word of the Lord God: This is what the Lord God says: Because you said, ‘Good!’ # Ezk 21:28; 26:2 about My sanctuary when it was desecrated, about the land of Israel when it was laid waste, and about the house of Judah when they went into exile, 4therefore I am about to give you to the people of the east as a possession. They will set up their encampments and pitch their tents among you. They will eat your fruit and drink your milk. 5I will make Rabbah a pasture # Jr 49:2; Ezk 21:20 for camels and Ammon a sheepfold. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”
6For this is what the Lord God says: “Because you clapped your hands, # Jb 27:23; Nah 3:19 stamped your feet, and rejoiced over the land of Israel with wholehearted contempt, 7therefore I am about to stretch out My hand against you # Zph 1:4 and give you as plunder to the nations. I will cut you off from the peoples and eliminate you from the countries. I will destroy you, and you will know that I am Yahweh.”
Judgment against Moab
8This is what the Lord God says: “Because Moab and Seir said, # Is 15:1; Jr 48:1; Am 2:1-2 ‘Look, the house of Judah is like all the other nations,’ 9therefore I am about to expose Moab’s flank beginning with its # Lit with the cities, with its frontier cities, the pride of the land: Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, # Jr 48:23 and Kiriathaim. 10I will give it along with Ammon to the people of the east as a possession, so that Ammon will not be remembered among the nations. 11So I will execute judgments against Moab, and they will know that I am Yahweh.”
Judgment against Edom
12This is what the Lord God says: “Because Edom acted vengefully against the house of Judah # 2Ch 28:17; Ps 137:7; Jr 49:7-22 and incurred grievous guilt by taking revenge on them, 13therefore this is what the Lord God says: I will stretch out My hand against Edom and cut off both man and animal from it. I will make it a wasteland; they will fall by the sword from Teman to Dedan. 14I will take My vengeance # Is 11:14 on Edom through My people Israel, and they will deal with Edom according to My anger and wrath. So they will know My vengeance.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.
Judgment against Philistia
15This is what the Lord God says: “Because the Philistines acted in vengeance and took revenge with deep contempt, # Is 14:29-31 destroying because of their ancient hatred, 16therefore this is what the Lord God says: I am about to stretch out My hand against the Philistines, # Jr 25:20; 47:1-7 cutting off the Cherethites and wiping out what remains of the coastal peoples. # Lit the seacoast # 1Sm 30:14; Zph 2:5 17I will execute great vengeance against them with furious rebukes. They will know that I am Yahweh # Ps 9:16 when I take My vengeance on them.”
