NSB(i)
1 Jehovah continued to speak his word to me:
2 »Son of man set your face (give attention) toward the Ammonites and prophesy against them.
3 »Tell the Ammonites: ‘Hear the word of the Lord Jehovah! The Lord Jehovah says: »Because you said, Aha! Against My sanctuary when it was profaned, and against the land of Israel when it was made desolate, and against the house of Judah when they went into exile,
4 »‘»I am going to give you to the sons of the east for a possession. They will set their encampments among you and make their dwellings among you. They will eat your fruit and drink your milk.
5 »‘»I will make Rabbah a pasture for camels and the Ammonites a resting place for flocks. So you will know that I am Jehovah.«’«
6 »The Lord Jehovah says: ‘Because you have clapped your hands and stamped your feet and rejoiced in your scorn against the land of Israel,
7 ‘»I have stretched out my hand against you and I will give you for spoil to the nations. I will cut you off from the peoples and make you perish from the lands. I will destroy you. Therefore, you will know that I am Jehovah.’
8 »The Lord Jehovah says: ‘Because Moab and Seir say, »Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations,
9 therefore, I am going to deprive the flank of Moab of its cities, of its cities which are on its frontiers, the glory of the land, Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon and Kiriathaim,
10 and I will give it for a possession along with the Ammonites to the sons of the east, so that the Ammonites will not be remembered among the nations.
11 »‘»Thus I will execute judgments on Moab, and they will know that I am Jehovah.’
