Ezekiel 25:8-17

8‘The Lord God says this: “Because 1Moab and Seir say, ‘Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations,’ 9therefore, behold, I am going to 2deprive the flank of Moab of its cities, of its cities 3which are on its frontiers, the glory of the land, 4Beth-jeshimoth, 5Baal-meon, and 6Kiriathaim; 10and I will give it as a possession along with the sons of Ammon to the 78people of the east, so that the sons of Ammon will not be remembered among the nations. 11So I will execute judgments on Moab, and they will know that I am the Lord.”

12‘The Lord God says this: “Because 9Edom has acted against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has incurred great guilt, and avenged themselves upon them,” 13therefore this is what the Lord God says: “I will also 10reach out with My hand against Edom and 11eliminate human and animal life from it. And I will turn it into ruins; from 12Teman even to 13Dedan they will fall by the sword. 14And 14I will inflict My vengeance on Edom by the hand of My people Israel. Therefore, they will act in Edom 15in accordance with My anger and My wrath; so they will know My vengeance,” declares the Lord God.

15‘This is what the Lord God says: “Because the Philistines have acted in 16revenge, and have taken vengeance with malice in their souls to destroy with everlasting hostility,” 16therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Behold, I am going to 17reach out with My hand against the Philistines and eliminate the 18Cherethites; and I will destroy the remnant of the seacoast. 17I will execute great vengeance on them with wrathful rebukes; and they will 19know that I am the Lord, when I inflict My vengeance on them.”’”
