1. The word of the Lord came to me:
2. “Son of man, turn toward the Ammonites and prophesy against them.
3. Say to the Ammonites, ‘Hear the word of the sovereign Lord: This is what the sovereign Lord says: You said “Aha!” about my sanctuary when it was desecrated, about the land of Israel when it was made desolate, and about the house of Judah when they went into exile.
4. So take note, I am about to make you slaves of the tribes of the east. They will make camps among you and pitch their tents among you. They will eat your fruit and drink your milk.
5. I will make Rabbah a pasture for camels and Ammon a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
