26 This is what the Lord God says:Remove the turban, and take off the crown.Things will not remain as they are; exalt the lowly and bring down the exalted.
27 A ruin, a ruin,I will make it a ruin!Yet this will not happenuntil He comes; I have given the judgment to Him.
28 “Now prophesy, son of man, and say: This is what the Lord God says concerning the Ammonites and their contempt. You are to proclaim:A sword! A swordis drawn for slaughter,polished to consume, to flash like lightning.
29 While they offer false visions and lying divinations about you,the time has come to put youto the necks of the profane wicked ones;the day has comefor your punishment.
30 Return it to its sheath! I will judge you in the place where you were created,in the land of your origin.
31 I will pour out My indignation on you;I will blow the fire of My fury on you. I will hand you over to brutal men,skilled at destruction.
32 You will be fuel for the fire.Your blood will be spilled in the land.You will not be remembered, for I, Yahweh, have spoken.”
