27. I will leave Jerusalem in ruins when my chosen one comes to punish this city.
28. The Lord God said:Ezekiel, son of man, the Ammonites have insulted Israel, so condemn them and tell them I am saying:A sword is drawn,ready to slaughter;it is polished and preparedto kill as fast as lightning.
29. You wicked Ammonites see false visions and believe untrue messages. But your day of punishment is coming soon, and my sword will slaughter you!
30. Your days of punishing others are over, so put your swords away. You will be punished in the land of your birth.
31. My furious anger will scorch you like fire, and I will hand you over to cruel men who are experts in killing.
32. You will be burnt and will die in your own land. Then you will be forgotten for ever. I, the Lord, have spoken.
