21:28 “As for you, son of man, prophesy and say, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says concerning the Ammonites and their coming humiliation; 1 say:
“‘A sword, a sword drawn for slaughter,
polished to consume, 2 to flash like lightning –
21:29 while seeing false visions for you
and reading lying omens for you 3 –
to place that sword 4 on the necks of the profane wicked, 5
whose day has come,
the time of final punishment.
21:30 Return it to its sheath! 6
In the place where you were created, 7
in your native land, I will judge you.
21:31 I will pour out my anger on you;
the fire of my fury I will blow on you.
I will hand you over to brutal men,
who are skilled in destruction.
21:32 You will become fuel for the fire –
your blood will stain the middle of the land; 8
you will no longer be remembered,
for I, the Lord, have spoken.’”
