Judgment on Ammon
1 Against the aAmmonites. Thus says the Lord:
“Has Israel no sons?
Has he no heir?
Why then does1 Milcom inherit bGad,
And his people dwell in its cities?
“Has Israel no sons?
Has he no heir?
Why then does1 Milcom inherit bGad,
And his people dwell in its cities?
2 aTherefore behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord,
“That I will cause to be heard an alarm of war
In bRabbah of the Ammonites;
It shall be a desolate mound,
And her1 villages shall be burned with fire.
Then Israel shall take possession of his inheritance,” says the Lord.

3 “Wail, O aHeshbon, for1 Ai is plundered!
Cry, you daughters of Rabbah,
bGird yourselves with sackcloth!
Lament and run to and fro by the walls;
For Milcom shall go into captivity
With his cpriests and his princes together.
Cry, you daughters of Rabbah,
bGird yourselves with sackcloth!
Lament and run to and fro by the walls;
For Milcom shall go into captivity
With his cpriests and his princes together.
4 Why ado you boast in the valleys,
1Your flowing valley, O bbacksliding daughter?
Who trusted in her ctreasures, dsaying,
‘Who will come against me?’

5 Behold, I will bring fear upon you,”
Says the Lord God of hosts,
“From all those who are around you;
You shall be driven out, everyone headlong,
And no one will gather those who wander off.
