A Sword And The Ammonites

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 sword
is drawn for slaughter,
polished to consume, to flash like lightning.

and lying divinations about you,
the time has come to put you
to the necks of the profane wicked ones;
the day has come
for 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.
