1 Viešpats kalbėjo man:

2 "Žmogaus sūnau, pranašauk prieš amonitus.

3 Sakyk amonitams: ‘Išgirskite Viešpaties Dievo žodį! Taip sako Viešpats Dievas: ‘Kadangi jūs džiūgavote dėl to, kad mano šventykla išniekinta, Izraelio šalis sunaikinta ir Judo namai išvesti nelaisvėn,

4 atiduosiu jus rytų šalies gyventojams. Jie išties savo palapines tarp jūsų ir įrengs stovyklas, jie valgys jūsų vaisius ir gers jūsų pieną.

5 Aš padarysiu Rabą vieta kupranugariams ir amonitų kraštą­gardais avims. Tada jūs žinosite, kad Aš esu Viešpats’.

6 Nes taip sako Viešpats: ‘Kadangi jūs plojote rankomis, trypėte kojomis ir nuoširdžiai džiaugėtės niekindami Izraelio žemę,

7 todėl Aš ištiesiu savo ranką prieš jus ir atiduosiu jus tautoms kaip grobį. Aš išnaikinsiu jus tarp tautų ir pražudysiu jus visose šalyse. Aš sunaikinsiu jus, ir tada žinosite, kad Aš esu Viešpats’ ".

8 Viešpats Dievas sako: "Kadangi Moabas ir Seyras sako, kad Judo namai yra kaip visos kitos tautos,

9 Aš atversiu Moabo šoną, pradėdamas nuo gražiausių miestų, krašto pasididžiavimo: Bet Ješimotų, Baal Meono ir Kirjataimų,

10 Aš juos atiduosiu kartu su amonitais rytų šalies gyventojams, ir amonitai nebebus minimi tarp tautų.

11 Taip Aš įvykdysiu teismą Moabui, ir jis žinos, kad Aš esu Viešpats".

12 Taip sako Viešpats Dievas: "Kadangi edomitai kerštingai elgėsi su Judo namais ir tuo sunkiai nusikalto,

13 Aš išnaikinsiu edomitus ir jų gyvulius, padarysiu kraštą dykuma; nuo Temano iki Dedano visi kris nuo kardo.

14 Aš bausiu edomitus per savo tautą Izraelį. Jie pasielgs su edomitais pagal mano nutarimą. Ir jie pažins mano kerštą,­sako Viešpats Dievas".

15 Viešpats Dievas sako: "Kadangi filistinai keršijo be jokio pasigailėjimo ir naikino izraelitus dėl senos neapykantos,

16 Aš ištiesiu savo ranką prieš filistinus, sunaikinsiu keretus ir pajūrio gyventojus.

17 Aš žiauriai atkeršysiu jiems ir nubausiu juos. Tada jie žinos, kad Aš esu Viešpats".

1 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying, 2 "Son of man, set your face toward the children of Ammon, and prophesy against them. 3 Tell the children of Ammon, ‘Hear the word of the Lord Yahweh! The Lord Yahweh says, "Because you said, ‘Aha!’ against my sanctuary when it was profaned, and against the land of Israel when it was made desolate, and against the house of Judah when they went into captivity, 4 therefore, behold, I will deliver you to the children of the east for a possession. They will set their encampments in you and make their dwellings in you. They will eat your fruit and they will drink your milk. 5 I will make Rabbah a stable for camels and the children of Ammon a resting place for flocks. Then you will know that I am Yahweh." 6 For the Lord Yahweh says: "Because you have clapped your hands, stamped with the feet, and rejoiced with all the contempt of your soul against the land of Israel, 7 therefore, behold, I have stretched out my hand on you, and will deliver you for a plunder to the nations. I will cut you off from the peoples, and I will cause you to perish out of the countries. I will destroy you. Then you will know that I am Yahweh."

8 "‘The Lord Yahweh says: "Because Moab and Seir say, ‘Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations,’ 9 therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on its frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim, 10 to the children of the east, to go against the children of Ammon; and I will give them for a possession, that the children of Ammon may not be remembered among the nations. 11 I will execute judgments on Moab. Then they will know that I am Yahweh."

12 "‘The Lord Yahweh says: "Because Edom has dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has greatly offended, and taken revenge on them," 13 therefore the Lord Yahweh says, "I will stretch out my hand on Edom, and will cut off man and animal from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman. They will fall by the sword even to Dedan. 14 I will lay my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel. They will do in Edom according to my anger and according to my wrath. Then they will know my vengeance," says the Lord Yahweh.

15 "‘The Lord Yahweh says: "Because the Philistines have taken revenge, and have taken vengeance with contempt of soul to destroy with perpetual hostility," 16 therefore the Lord Yahweh says, "Behold, I will stretch out my hand on the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethites, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast. 17 I will execute great vengeance on them with wrathful rebukes. Then they will know that I am Yahweh, when I lay my vengeance on them."’"
