A Prophecy against Ammon

49 This is what Yahweh says about the people of Ammon:

Doesn’t Israel have any children? Doesn’t it have any heirs?
    Why, then, has the god Milcom[a] taken over the inheritance
        of Gad’s descendants?
    Why do Milcom’s people live in Gad’s cities?
That is why the days are coming, declares Yahweh,
    when I will sound the battle cry against Rabbah,
        where the people of Ammon live.
            It will become a pile of rubble.
            Its villages will be burned down.
    Then Israel will take possession of its inheritance, says Yahweh.
