And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

"Son of man, set your face against the ^(C1)sons of Ammon and prophesy against them,

and say to the sons of Ammon, 'Hear the word of the Lord ^(F1)GOD! This is what the Lord GOD says: "Because you said, '^(C1)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 exile,

therefore, behold, I am going to give you to the ^(F1)(C1)people of the east as a possession, and they will set up their encampments among you and make their dwellings among you; they will ^(C2)eat your fruit and drink your milk.

"I will make ^(C1)Rabbah a pasture for camels, and the sons of Ammon a resting place for flocks. Then you will know that I am the LORD."

'For this is what the Lord GOD says: "Because you have ^(C1)clapped your hands and stamped your feet, and have ^(C2)rejoiced with all the malice in your soul against the land of Israel,

therefore, behold, I have ^(C1)reached out with My hand against you and I will give you as ^(C2)plunder to the nations. And I will ^(C3)cut you off from the peoples and ^(C4)eliminate you from the lands. I will exterminate you. So you will ^(C5)know that I am the LORD."
