Ezekiel 25:4-7
The Message
Acts of Vengeance
25 1-5 God’s Message came to me:
“Son of man, face Ammon and preach against the people: Listen to the Message of God, the Master. This is what God has to say: Because you cheered when my Sanctuary was desecrated and the land of Judah was devastated and the people of Israel were taken into exile, I’m giving you over to the people of the east. They’ll move in and make themselves at home, eating the food right off your tables and drinking your milk. I’ll turn your capital, Rabbah, into pasture for camels and all your villages into corrals for flocks. Then you’ll realize that I am God.
6-7 “God, the Master, says, Because you clapped and cheered, venting all your malicious contempt against the land of Israel, I’ll step in and hand you out as loot—first come, first served. I’ll cross you off the roster of nations. There’ll be nothing left of you. And you’ll realize that I am God.”

They will set up their camps(B) and pitch their tents among you; they will eat your fruit and drink your milk.(C) 5 I will turn Rabbah(D) into a pasture for camels and Ammon into a resting place for sheep.(E) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 6 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you have clapped your hands(F) and stamped your feet, rejoicing with all the malice of your heart against the land of Israel,(G)
