Ezekiel 25
King James Version
25 The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;
3 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;
4 Behold, therefore I will deliver thee to the men of the east for a 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 milk.
5 And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couching place for flocks: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
6 For thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast clapped thine hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all thy despite against the land of Israel;
7 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.
8 Thus saith the Lord God; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen;
9 Therefore, 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,
10 Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will give them in possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations.
11 And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
12 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;
13 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.
14 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.
15 Thus saith 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;
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast.
17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.

Profetier mod Ammon, Moab, Edom og filistrenes land
25 Herren sagde til mig: 2 „Du menneske, vend dit ansigt mod ammonitterne og profetér imod dem. 3 Sig til dem: Hør, hvad Herren siger: Fordi I kun havde spottende ord tilovers for mit tempel, da det blev ødelagt, fordi I hånede Israel, da landet blev ramt af katastrofen, og fordi I lo ad Judas folk, dengang de blev ført i eksil, 4 vil jeg overgive jer til ørkenbeduinerne, der kommer imod jer fra øst. De slår lejr på jeres marker, tager jeres frugthøst og mælken fra jeres køer. 5 Jeg forvandler hovedstaden Rabba til en græsgang for kameler og Ammons land til en brakmark, hvor fåreflokke hviler sig. Da vil I indse, at jeg er Herren.
6 Herren siger: Fordi I klappede i hænderne, stampede med fødderne og jublede af skadefryd og foragt for mit folk, 7 bliver I som straf overgivet til jeres fjender, så I bliver udryddet og ikke længere er en nation og et folk. Da vil I indse, at jeg er Herren.
8 Herren siger: Moabitterne påstår ligesom edomitterne, at Judas folk er som alle andre folk. 9-10 Derfor åbner jeg Moabs østgrænse, så landets stolte byer, Bet-Jeshimot, Ba’al-Meon og Kirjatajim går tabt. Dem giver jeg til ørkenbeduinerne fra øst, som strømmer ind i landet, ligesom de gør i Ammon. Moab bliver udslettet som nation og folk. 11 Sådan straffer jeg moabitterne. Da vil de indse, at jeg er Herren.
12 Herren siger: Edoms folk syndede groft ved at hævne sig på Judas befolkning. 13 Derfor løfter jeg min hånd imod Edom og udrydder hele befolkningen og alt kvæget i landet. Fra Teman til Dedan bliver alt lagt i ruiner, folket bliver sablet ned, og landet bliver øde. 14 Straffen over Edom skal udføres af mit folk, Israel. Gennem dem udløser jeg min vrede og hævn. Så vil de indse, at jeg er Herren.
15 Herren siger: Filistrene var hævngerrige og fulde af foragt og gammelt fjendskab over for mit folk. 16 Derfor løfter jeg min hånd imod filistrene og udrydder også kreterne mod syd og de øvrige folk langs kysten. 17 Ja, jeg tager frygtelig hævn over dem for den behandling, de gav mit folk. Når det sker, vil de indse, at jeg er Herren.”
