Eternal One: For three crimes of the Ammonites,
        no for four, I have laid down My sentence and will not revoke it

        as they made war to expand their territory.
14     So I will send down fire on the wall that protects Rabbah, its only major city,
        and burn down all of its fortifications.
    With shouts and war cries on the day of battle,
        with a whirlwind in the midst of the storm,
15     I will force the king into exile,
        along with all the officials who counsel him.

So says the Eternal One.
