Ezekiel 25:5-7
New English Translation
5 I will make Rabbah a pasture for camels and Ammon[a] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I am the Lord. 6 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you clapped your hands, stamped your feet, and rejoiced with intense scorn[b] over the land of Israel, 7 take note—I have stretched out my hand against you, and I will hand you over as plunder[c] to the nations. I will cut you off from the peoples and make you perish from the lands. I will destroy you; then you will know that I am the Lord.’”

New International Version
5 I will turn Rabbah(A) into a pasture for camels and Ammon into a resting place for sheep.(B) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 6 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you have clapped your hands(C) and stamped your feet, rejoicing with all the malice of your heart against the land of Israel,(D) 7 therefore I will stretch out my hand(E) against you and give you as plunder(F) to the nations. I will wipe you out from among the nations and exterminate you from the countries. I will destroy(G) you, and you will know that I am the Lord.(H)’”
