Contextual Overview
1 This message is about the Ammonites. This is what the Lord says: "Ammonites, do you think that the people of Israel don't have children? Do you think there are no children to take the land when the parents die? Maybe that is why Milcom took Gad's land?" 2 The Lord says, "The time will come in Rabbah of Ammon when people hear the sounds of battle. Rabbah of Ammon will be destroyed. It will be an empty hill covered with ruined buildings, and the towns around it will be burned. Those people forced the people of Israel to leave their own land. But later, Israel will force them to leave." This is what the Lord said. 3 "People in Heshbon, cry because the town of Ai is destroyed! Women in Rabbah of Ammon, cry! Put on sackcloth and cry. Run to the city for safety, because the enemy will take away the god Milcom, with his priests and officials. 4 You brag about your strength, but you are losing your strength. You trust in your wealth to save you. You think no one would even think of attacking you." 5 But this is what the Lord God All-Powerful says: "I will bring troubles to you from every side. You will all run away, and no one will be able to bring you together again." 6 "The Ammonites will be taken away as captives. But the time will come when I will bring the Ammonites back." This message is from the Lord .

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And afterwards I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith the Lord. Perhaps by Cyrus; for, in the times of Judas Maccabeus, the children of Ammon were again a large and mighty people,
"Afterward he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, with Timotheus their captain.'' (1 Maccabees 5:6)
Justin Martyr f says, that in his time there was a large multitude of Ammonites; but Origen g, who was later than he, observes, that not only the Idumeans, but the Ammonites and Moabites, were then called by the common name of Arabians; and these are now the present inhabitants of their country; and when these shall be converted in the latter day; see Isaiah 60:6; who may be called by the name of the ancient inhabitants; then will this be more fully accomplished: for some refer this to the days of the Messiah, and to the conversion of some of these Heathen people, either in the first times of the Gospel, or in the latter day; Isaiah 60:6- :. The Jews h understand this as fulfilled in Ammonite proselytes to their religion.
