Context of Ezekiel 25:10

8“This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the people of Moab have said that Judah is just like all the other nations, 9I will open up their eastern flank and wipe out their glorious frontier towns—Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim. And I will hand Moab over to nomads from the eastern deserts, just as I handed over Ammon. Yes, the Ammonites will no longer be counted among the nations. 11In the same way, I will bring my judgment down on the Moabites. Then they will know that I am the Lord. 12“This is what the Sovereign Lord says: The people of Edom have sinned greatly by avenging themselves against the people of Judah.
