soul, their sons and their daughters? 26 On that day, the one who escapes will arrive at<br />

you in order to report it to you in your ears. 27 On that day, your mouth will be opened<br />

to the one who escapes; you will speak and will be no longer dumb. You will exist as a<br />

wonder for them, and they will recognize that I am the Lord.´"<br />

Ezekiel 25<br />

1 The word of the Lord was directed at me, saying, 2 "Son of man, set your face<br />

against the sons of Ammon and prophesy against them. 3 You will say to the sons of<br />

Ammon, `Hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord: "Since you rejoiced over my<br />

holy places because they were profaned, over the land of Israel because it was<br />

obliterated, and over the house of Judah because they went into captivity, 4 because of<br />

this, behold, I will deliver you up to the sons of Kedem as an inheritance. They will<br />

dwell among you with their utensils, and they will give their tents among you. They<br />

themselves will eat your fruits, and they themselves will drink your cream. 5 I will give<br />

the city of Ammon as pastures of camels and the sons of Ammon as a pasture of sheep,<br />

and you will recognize that I am the Lord." 6 For thus says the Lord: "Since you clapped<br />

your hands, stomped with your foot, and rejoiced from your soul against the land of<br />

Israel, 7 because of this, I will extend my hand against you and give you as plunder<br />

among the nations. I will eliminate you from the peoples and destroy you from the<br />

countries in a destruction, and you will recognize that I am the Lord."<br />

8 Thus says the Lord: "Since Moab A said, `Behold, isn’t the house of Israel and Judah<br />

similar to all the nations?´ 9 because of this, behold, I will paralyze the shoulder of Moab<br />

from the cities of his extremities, the select land, the house of Beth-jeshimoth above<br />

the fountain of the city beside the sea. 10 I have given him the sons of Kedem in<br />

addition to the sons of Ammon as an inheritance, so that there may be no memory of<br />

the sons of Ammon. 11 I will execute vengeance on Moab, and they will recognize that I<br />

am the Lord."<br />

12 Thus says the Lord: "Since Idumea executed vengeance when they took<br />

vengeance on the house of Judah, remembered wicked acts, and exacted a penalty,"<br />

13 because of this, thus says the Lord: "I will also extend my hand against Idumea. I will<br />

eliminate man and livestock from it, and I will make it a desert; those who are being<br />

pursued from Teman will fall by the sword. 14 I will execute my vengeance against<br />

Idumea by the hand of my people Israel; they will act in Idumea according to my wrath<br />

and according to my fury, and they will recognize my vengeance," says the Lord.<br />

15 Because of this, thus says the Lord: "Since the Philistines acted in vengeance and<br />

raised up vengeance, while they were rejoicing from the soul, in order to wipe out<br />

forever," 16 because of this, thus says the Lord: "Behold, I will extend my hand against<br />

the Philistines, eliminate the Cretans, and destroy the remnants which reside by the<br />

seacoast. 17 I will execute great acts of vengeance among them, and they will recognize<br />

that I am the Lord when I give my vengeance against them."´"<br />
