你要定出一条路，使刀来到亚扪人的拉巴；又要定出一条路，使刀来到犹大的坚固城耶路撒冷。

“人子啊，你要预言。耶和华吩咐我如此说：有刀、有刀，是磨快擦亮的；磨快为要行杀戮，擦亮为要像闪电。我们岂可快乐吗？罚我子的杖藐视各树。

“我听见摩押人的毁谤和亚扪人的辱骂，就是毁谤我的百姓，自夸自大，侵犯他们的境界。”万军之耶和华以色列的神说：“我指着我的永生起誓：摩押必像所多玛，亚扪人必像蛾摩拉，都变为刺草、盐坑、永远荒废之地。我百姓所剩下的必掳掠他们；我国中所余剩的必得着他们的地。”这事临到他们是因他们骄傲，自夸自大，毁谤万军之耶和华的百姓。

“人子啊，你要面向亚扪人说预言，攻击他们，说：你们当听主耶和华的话。主耶和华如此说：我的圣所被亵渎，以色列地变荒凉，犹大家被掳掠；那时，你便因这些事说：‘阿哈！’所以我必将你的地交给东方人为业；他们必在你的地上安营居住，吃你的果子，喝你的奶。我必使拉巴为骆驼场，使亚扪人的地为羊群躺卧之处，你们就知道我是耶和华。”主耶和华如此说：“因你拍手顿足，以满心的恨恶向以色列地欢喜，所以我伸手攻击你，将你交给列国作为掳物。我必从万民中剪除你，使你从万国中败亡。我必除灭你，你就知道我是耶和华。”

论亚扪人。耶和华如此说：“以色列没有儿子吗？没有后嗣吗？玛勒堪为何得迦得之地为业呢？属他的民为何住其中的城邑呢？耶和华说：日子将到，我必使人听见打仗的喊声，是攻击亚扪人拉巴的喊声。拉巴要成为乱堆；属他的乡村要被火焚烧。先前得以色列地为业的，此时以色列倒要得他们的地为业。这是耶和华说的。“希实本哪，你要哀号，因为爱地变为荒场。拉巴的居民哪，要呼喊，以麻布束腰；要哭号，在篱笆中跑来跑去；因玛勒堪和属他的祭司、首领要一同被掳去。背道的民哪，你们为何因有山谷，就是水流的山谷夸张呢？为何倚靠财宝说：‘谁能来到我们这里呢？’主万军之耶和华说：我要使恐吓从四围的人中临到你们；你们必被赶出，各人一直前往，没有人收聚逃民。

耶和华如此说：“亚扪人三番四次地犯罪，我必不免去他们的刑罚；因为他们剖开基列的孕妇，扩张自己的境界。我却要在争战呐喊的日子，旋风狂暴的时候，点火在拉巴的城内，烧灭其中的宫殿。他们的王和首领必一同被掳去。”这是耶和华说的。

灭命的都来到旷野中一切净光的高处；耶和华的刀从地这边直到地那边尽行杀灭。凡有血气的都不得平安。
