Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.

And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.

The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;

And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.

This is the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen;

Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign: according to all that he hath done shall ye do: and when this cometh, ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.

I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD, even thou only.
