49About the Ammonites, this is what the LORD says: Does Israel have no sons? Is he without an heir? Why then has Milcomdispossessed Gad and his people settled in their cities?H1121H5983H559H3068H3478H1121H3423H4428H3423H1410H5971H3427H58922Therefore look, the days are coming— [this is] the LORD's declaration— when I will make the shout of battle heard against Rabbah of the Ammonites. It will become a desolate mound, and its villages will be burned down. Israel will dispossess their dispossessors, says the LORD.H3117H935H559H3068H8643H4421H8085H7237H1121H5983H8077H8510H1323H3341H784H3478H3423H3423H5002H30683Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is devastated; cry out, daughters of Rabbah! Clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and lament; run back and forth within your walls, because Milcom will go into exile together with his priests and officials.H3213H2809H5857H7703H6817H1323H7237H2296H8242H5594H7751H1448H4428H3212H1473H3548H8269H31624Why do you brag about your valleys, your flowing valley, you faithless daughter? You who trust in your treasures [and boast]: Who can attack me?H1984H6010H2100H6010H7728H1323H982H214H9355Look, I am about to bring terror on you— [this is] the declaration of the Lord, the God of Hosts— from all those around you. You will be banished, each man headlong, with no one to gather up the fugitives.H935H6343H5002H136H3069H6635H5439H5080H376H6440H6908H50746But after that, I will restore the fortunes of the Ammonites. [This is] the LORD's declaration.H310H7725H7622H1121H5983H5002H30687About Edom, this is what the LORD of Hosts says: Is there no longer wisdom in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom rotted away?H123H559H3068H6635H2451H8487H6098H6H995H2451H56288Run! Turn back! Lie low, residents of Dedan, for I will bring Esau's calamity on him at the time I punish him.H5127H6437H3427H6009H3427H1719H935H343H6215H6256H64859If grape harvesters came to you, wouldn't they leave some gleanings? Were thieves to come in the night, they would destroy only what they wanted.H1219H935H7604H5955H1590H3915H7843H176710But I will strip Esau bare; I will uncover his secret places. He will try to hide himself, but he will be unable. His descendants will be destroyed along with his relatives and neighbors. He will exist no longer.H6215H2834H1540H4565H3201H2247H2233H7703H251H793411Abandon your orphans; I will preserve them; let your widows trust in Me.H5800H3490H2421H490H98212"For this is what the LORD says: If those who do not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, can you possibly remain unpunished? You will not remain unpunished, for you must drink [it] too.H559H3068H4941H8354H3563H8354H8354H5352H5352H5352H8354H835413For by Myself I have sworn"— the LORD's declaration— "Bozrah will become a desolation, a disgrace, a ruin, and a curse, and all her cities will become ruins forever."H7650H5002H3068H1224H8047H2781H2721H7045H5892H5769H272314I have heard a message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent among the nations: Assemble yourselves to come against her. Rise up for war!H8085H8052H3068H6735H7971H1471H6908H935H6965H442115Look, I will certainly make you insignificant among the nations, despised among humanity.H5414H6996H1471H959H12016As to the terror you cause, your presumptuous heart has deceived you. You who live in the clefts of the rock, you who occupy the mountain summit, though you elevate your nest like the eagle, even from there I will bring you down. [This is] the LORD's declaration.H8606H5377H2087H3820H7931H2288H5553H8610H4791H1389H7064H1361H5404H3381H5002H306817"Edom will become a desolation. Everyone who passes by her will be horrified and scoff because of all her wounds.H123H8047H5674H8074H8319H434718As when Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown along with their neighbors," says the LORD, "no one will live there; no human being will even stay in it as a resident alien.H4114H5467H6017H7934H559H3068H376H3427H1121H120H148119"Look, it will be like a lion coming up from the thickets of the Jordan to the perennially watered grazing land. Indeed, I will chase Edom away from her [land] in a flash. I will appoint whoever is chosen for her. For who is like Me? Who will summon Me? Who is the shepherd who can stand against Me?"H5927H738H1347H3383H5116H386H7280H7323H977H6485H3259H7462H5975H644020Therefore, hear the plans that the LORD has drawn up against Edom and the strategies He has devised against the people of Teman: The flock's little lambs will certainly be dragged away, and their grazing land will be made desolate because of them.H8085H6098H3068H3289H123H4284H2803H3427H8487H6810H6629H5498H5116H807421At the sound of their fall the earth will quake; the sound of her cry will be heard at the Red Sea.H776H7493H6963H5307H6818H6963H8085H5488H322022Look! It will be like an eagle soaring upward, then swooping down and spreading its wings over Bozrah. In that day the hearts of Edom's warriors will be like the heart of a woman with contractions.H5927H1675H5404H6566H3671H1224H3117H3820H1368H123H3820H802H688723About Damascus: Hamath and Arpad are put to shame, for they have heard a bad report and are agitated; in the sea there is anxiety that cannot be calmed.H1834H2574H954H774H8085H7451H8052H4127H1674H3220H3201H825224Damascus has become weak; she has turned to run; panic has gripped her. Distress and labor pains have seized her like a woman in labor.H1834H7503H6437H5127H7374H2388H6869H2256H270H320525How can the city of praise not be abandoned, the town that brings Me joy?H5892H8416H5800H7151H488526Therefore, her young men will fall in her public squares; all the warriors will be silenced in that day. [This is] the declaration of the LORD of Hosts.H970H5307H7339H582H4421H1826H3117H5002H3068H663527I will set fire to the wall of Damascus; it will devour Ben-hadad's citadels.H3341H784H2346H1834H398H759H113028About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon's king, defeated, this is what the LORD says: Rise up, go against Kedar, and destroy the people of the east!H6938H4467H2674H5019H4428H894H5221H559H3068H6965H5927H6938H7703H1121H692429They will take their tents and their flocks along with their tent curtains and all their equipment. They will take their camels for themselves. They will call out to them: Terror is on every side!H168H6629H3947H5375H3407H3627H1581H7121H4032H543930Run! Escape quickly! Lie low, residents of Hazor— [this is] the LORD's declaration— for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has drawn up a plan against you; he has devised a strategy against you.H5127H5110H3966H3427H6009H3427H2674H5002H3068H5019H4428H894H6098H3289H2803H428431Rise up, go up against a nation at ease, one living in security. [This is] the LORD's declaration. They have no doors, not even a gate bar; they live alone.H6965H5927H7961H1471H3427H983H5002H3068H1817H1280H7931H91032Their camels will become plunder, and their massive herds of cattle will become spoil. I will scatter them to the wind in every direction, those who shave their temples; I will bring calamity on them across all their borders. [This is] the LORD's declaration.H1581H957H1995H4735H7998H2219H7307H7112H6285H935H343H5676H5002H306833Hazor will become a jackals' den, a desolation forever.

There will not be a nation to which Elam's banished ones will not go.H5867H935H702H7307H702H7098H8064H2219H7307H1471H5080H5867H5769H93537I will devastate Elam before their enemies, before those who want to take their lives. I will bring disaster on them, My burning anger. [This is] the LORD's declaration. I will send the sword after them until I finish them off.H5867H2865H6440H341H6440H1245H5315H935H7451H2740H639H5002H3068H7971H2719H310H361538I will set My throne in Elam, and I will destroy the king and officials from there. [This is] the LORD's declaration.H7760H3678H5867H6H4428H8269H5002H306839In the last days, I will restore the fortunes of Elam.
