Prophecy Against Moab and Seir

“Thus says the Lord God: Because (C)Moab and (D)Seir[a] said, ‘Behold, the (E)house of Judah is like all the other nations,’ therefore (F)I will lay open the flank of Moab from the cities, from its cities on its frontier, the glory of the country, (G)Beth-jeshimoth, (H)Baal-meon, and (I)Kiriathaim. 10 I will give it (J)along with the Ammonites (K)to the people of the East as a possession, (L)that the Ammonites may be remembered no more among the nations, 11 (M)and I will execute judgments upon Moab. (N)Then they will know that I am the Lord.

Then they will know that I am the Lord.’”(K)
