1Vino a mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

2Hijo de hombre, pon tu rostro hacia los hijos de Amón, y profetiza contra ellos.

3Y dirás a los hijos de Amón: Oíd palabra de Jehová el Señor. Así dice Jehová el Señor: Por cuanto dijiste: ¡Ea, bien!, cuando mi santuario era profanado, y la tierra de Israel era asolada, y llevada en cautiverio la casa de Judá;

4por tanto, he aquí yo te entrego por heredad a los orientales, y pondrán en ti sus apriscos y plantarán en ti sus tiendas; ellos comerán tus sementeras, y beberán tu leche.

5Y pondré a Rabá por habitación de camellos, y a los hijos de Amón por majada de ovejas; y sabréis que yo soy Jehová.

6Porque así ha dicho Jehová el Señor: Por cuanto batiste tus manos, y golpeaste con tu pie, y te gozaste en el alma con todo tu menosprecio para la tierra de Israel,

7por tanto, he aquí yo extenderé mi mano contra ti, y te entregaré a las naciones para ser saqueada; te cortaré de entre los pueblos, y te destruiré de entre las tierras; te exterminaré, y sabrás que yo soy Jehová.

8Así ha dicho Jehová el Señor: Por cuanto dijo Moab y Seir: He aquí la casa de Judá es como todas las naciones;

9por tanto, he aquí yo abro el lado de Moab desde las ciudades, desde sus ciudades que están en su confín, las tierras deseables de Bet-jesimot, Baal-meón y Quiriataim,

10a los hijos del oriente contra los hijos de Amón; y la entregaré por heredad, para que no haya más memoria de los hijos de Amón entre las naciones.

11También en Moab haré juicios, y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.

12Así ha dicho Jehová el Señor: Por lo que hizo Edom, tomando venganza de la casa de Judá, pues delinquieron en extremo, y se vengaron de ellos;

13por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová el Señor: Yo también extenderé mi mano sobre Edom, y cortaré de ella hombres y bestias, y la asolaré; desde Temán hasta Dedán caerán a espada.

14Y pondré mi venganza contra Edom en manos de mi pueblo Israel, y harán en Edom según mi enojo y conforme a mi ira; y conocerán mi venganza, dice Jehová el Señor.

15Así ha dicho Jehová el Señor: Por lo que hicieron los filisteos con venganza, cuando se vengaron con despecho de ánimo, destruyendo por antiguas enemistades;

16por tanto, así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo extiendo mi mano contra los filisteos, y cortaré a los cereteos, y destruiré el resto que queda en la costa del mar.

17Y haré en ellos grandes venganzas con reprensiones de ira; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, cuando haga mi venganza en ellos.

Set thy face against the Ammonites - We have already seen, Eze 21:19, etc., that when Nebuchadnezzar left Babylon he was in doubt whether he should besiege Riblath, the capital of the Ammonites, or Jerusalem, the capital of the Jews, first: and having used his divination. he was determined, by the result, to attack Jerusalem the first. He did so and the Ammonites, seeing the success of his arms, made friends with him, and exulted in the ruin of the Jews. God resents this, and predicts their downfall with that of Edom, Moab, and the Philistines. The fulfillment of this prediction is not noted in Scripture: but Josephus tells us, that about five years after the taking of Jerusalem, Nebuchadnezzar turned his arms against the Ammonites and Moabites, and afterwards against Egypt; and having subdued those nations, he returned to Babylon. Joseph. Antiq., 50 x., c. 2. Berosus states, as quoted by Josephus, contra App., that Nebuchadnezzar subdued Syria, Arabia, Phoenicia, and Egypt: and consequently, that he had brought under his dominion the Ammonites, Moabites, and Idumeans, who were included among the Philistines. See Calmet.

Will deliver thee to the men of the east - Probably the Scenite Arabs, Ishmaelites, and people of Kedar, who seized upon the provinces of the vanquished Ammonites, etc. The following description suits this people only, living on fruits, the milk of their flocks, using camels, etc. Some think the people of the east mean the Chaldeans.

Moab and Seir do say - Seir means the Idumeans. It appears that both these, with the Ammonites, had made a league with Zedekiah, Jer 27:3, which they did not keep; and it is supposed that they even joined with the Chaldeans.

Versículo 9

I will open the side - קתף ketheph, the shoulder, the strongest frontier place. Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim were strong frontier towns of Moab.

Because that Edom hath dealt - The Edomites were the most inveterate enemies of the Jews from the very earliest times, and ever did all that they could to annoy them.

Versículo 13

I will make it desolate from Teman - Teman and Dedan were both cities of the Moabites, and apparently at each extremity of the land.

Versículo 14

I will lay my vengeance upon Edom - God will not allow men to insult those whom he has cast down. His judgment is sufficient; to add more is an insult to God. By the hand of may people Israel - This was fulfilled by the Maccabees, who not only defeated them and brought them under complete subjection, but obliged them to receive circumcision, Joseph. Antiq. 50 xiii., c. 17; 1 Maccabees 5:65; 2 Maccabees 10:16.

Versículo 15

Because the Philistines - They were as inimical to the Jews as the Ammonites, etc., were. Nebuchadnezzar punished them because they had assisted the Tyrians during the time he was besieging their city. I will cut of the Cherethims - See the note on Sa2 8:18. The remnant of the sea coasts - The different seignories of the Philistines inhabited the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, from Judea to Egypt. For other matters relative to these prophecies, see Jer 47:4 (note).
