*
Concerning the Ammonites ,
thus saith the LORD ;
Hath Israel no sons ?
hath he no heir ?
why then doth their king inherit Gad ,
and his people dwell in his cities ?
*
Therefore ,
behold ,
the days come ,
saith the LORD ,
that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites ;
and it shall be a desolate heap ,
and her daughters shall be burned with fire :
then shall Israel be heir unto them that were his heirs ,
saith the LORD .
*
Howl ,
O Heshbon ,
for Ai is spoiled :
cry ,
ye daughters of Rabbah ,
gird you with sackcloth ;
lament ,
and run to and fro by the hedges ;
for their king shall go into captivity ,
and his priests and his princes together .
*
Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys ,
thy flowing valley ,
O backsliding daughter ?
that trusted in her treasures ,
saying ,
Who shall come unto me ?
*
Behold ,
I will bring a fear upon thee ,
saith the Lord GOD of hosts ,
from all those that be about thee ;
and ye shall be driven out every man right forth ;
and none shall gather up him that wandereth .
*
And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon ,
saith the LORD .
