25:1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων,
וַ/יְהִ֥י דְבַר יְהוָ֖ה אֵלַ֥/י לֵ/אמֹֽר
25:2 Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam contra filios Ammon, et prophetabis de eis.
*H Son of man, set thy face against the children of Ammon, and thou shalt prophesy of them.
Ver. 2-3. Ammon. These nations were punished five years after the Jews. C. xxi. 19. Jer. xxvii. 3. C. — "Egypt, Syria, Phœnicia, and Arabia," were conquered. Beros. — Hast. God saw their dispositions, which they manifested afterwards. C. — They rejoiced most, and were therefore punished with other nations. W.
υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, στήρισον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀμμὼν, καὶ προφήτευσον ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς,

25:3 Et dices filiis Ammon : [Audite verbum Domini Dei. Haec dicit Dominus Deus : Pro eo quod dixisti : Euge, euge, super sanctuarium meum, quia pollutum est ; et super terram Israel, quoniam desolata est ; et super domum Juda, quoniam ducti sunt in captivitatem :

49:7
Against Edom. Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Is wisdom no more in Theman? counsel is perished from her children: their wisdom is become unprofitable.
And thou shalt say to the children of Ammon: Hear ye the word of the Lord God: Thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast said: Ha, ha, upon my sanctuary, because it was profaned: and upon the land of Israel, because it was laid waste: and upon the house of Juda, because they are led into captivity:
'καὶ ἐρεῖς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἀμμὼν,
וְ/אָֽמַרְתָּ֙ לִ/בְנֵ֣י עַמּ֔וֹן שִׁמְע֖וּ דְּבַר אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֑ה כֹּה אָמַ֣ר אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֡ה יַעַן֩ אָמְרֵ֨/ךְ הֶאָ֜ח אֶל מִקְדָּשִׁ֣/י כִֽי נִחָ֗ל וְ/אֶל אַדְמַ֤ת יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ כִּ֣י נָשַׁ֔מָּה וְ/אֶל בֵּ֣ית יְהוּדָ֔ה כִּ֥י הָלְכ֖וּ בַּ/גּוֹלָֽה
25:4 idcirco ego tradam te filiis orientalibus in haereditatem : et collocabunt caulas suas in te, et ponent in te tentoria sua : ipsi comedent fruges tuas, et ipsi bibent lac tuum.
*H Therefore will I deliver thee to the men of the east for an inheritance, and they shall place their sheepcotes in thee, and shall set up their tents in thee: they shall eat thy fruits: and they shall drink thy milk.
Ver. 4. East; the Chaldeans, (Sanct.) who conquered them, (H.) though the Scenite Arabs, who occupied the country after the inhabitants were removed, or the Armenians and Agarens, are rather meant than the Chaldees. W.
διατοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ παραδίδωμι ὑμᾶς τοῖς υἱοῖς Κεδὲμ εἰς κληρονομίαν, καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν ἐν τῇ ἀπαρτίᾳ αὐτῶν ἐν σοὶ, καὶ δώσουσιν ἐν σοὶ τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτῶν· αὐτοὶ φάγονται τοὺς καρπούς σου, καὶ αὐτοὶ πίονται τὴν πιότητά σου.

25:5 Daboque Rabbath in habitaculum camelorum, et filios Ammon in cubile pecorum : et scietis quia ego Dominus.
*H And I will make Rabbath a stable for camels, and the children of Ammon a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
Ver. 5. Rabbath, the capital city of the Ammonites: it was afterwards called Philadelphia. Ch. — Flocks. These constituted the riches of those Arabians.
Καὶ δώσω τὴν πόλιν τοῦ Ἀμμὼν εἰς νομὰς καμήλων, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀμμὼν εἰς νομὴν προβάτων, καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος.

25:6 Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus : Pro eo quod plausisti manu et percussisti pede, et gavisa es ex toto affectu super terram Israel,
For thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast clapped thy hands and stamped with thy foot, and hast rejoiced with all thy heart against the land of Israel:
Διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐκρότησας τὴν χεῖρά σου, καὶ ἐψόφησας τῷ ποδί σου, καὶ ἐπέχαρας ἐκ ψυχῆς σου ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ,
כִּ֣י כֹ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֔ה יַ֚עַן מַחְאֲ/ךָ֣ יָ֔ד וְ/רַקְעֲ/ךָ֖ בְּ/רָ֑גֶל וַ/תִּשְׂמַ֤ח בְּ/כָל שָֽׁאטְ/ךָ֙ בְּ/נֶ֔פֶשׁ אֶל אַדְמַ֖ת יִשְׂרָאֵֽל
25:7 idcirco ecce ego extendam manum meam super te, et tradam te in direptionem gentium, et interficiam te de populis, et perdam de terris, et conteram : et scies quia ego Dominus.]
*H Therefore behold I will stretch forth my hand upon thee, and will deliver thee to be the spoil of nations, and will cut thee off from among the people, and destroy thee out of the lands, and break thee in pieces: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
Ver. 7. Lord, and that it was not through impotence that my people became a prey. Ammon and Moab returned after some time. v. 10. C. xvi. 53. Jer. xlix. 6.
διατοῦτο ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ σὲ, καὶ δώσω σε εἰς διαρπαγὴν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσω σε ἐκ τῶν λαῶν, καὶ ἀπολῶ σε ἐκ τῶν χωρῶν ἀπωλείᾳ, καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος.

25:8 [Haec dicit Dominus Deus : Pro eo quod dixerunt Moab et Seir : Ecce sicut omnes gentes, domus Juda :
*H Thus saith the Lord God: Because Moab and Seir have said: Behold the house of Juda is like all other nations:
Ver. 8. Seir; Idumea. — Nations, whose gods could not defend them. C. — Thus they blasphemed the Lord. Theod.
Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἀνθʼ ὧν εἶπε Μωάβ, ἰδοὺ, οὐχ ὃν τρόπον πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, οἶκος Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἰούδα;
כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֖ר אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֑ה יַ֗עַן אֲמֹ֤ר מוֹאָב֙ וְ/שֵׂעִ֔יר הִנֵּ֥ה כְּ/כָֽל הַ/גּוֹיִ֖ם בֵּ֥ית יְהוּדָֽה
25:9 idcirco ecce ego aperiam humerum Moab de civitatibus, de civitatibus, inquam, ejus, et de finibus ejus, inclytas terrae Bethiesimoth, et Beelmeon, et Cariathaim,
*H Therefore behold I will open the shoulder of Moab from the cities, from his cities, I say, and his borders, the noble cities of the land of Bethiesimoth, and Beelmeon, and Cariathaim,
Ver. 9. Shoulder; reduce to slavery, (H.) or take the strong places, (Jer. xlviii. 7. C.) or cities and strength of Moab. W.
Διατοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ παραλύω τὸν ὦμον Μωάβ ἀπὸ πόλεων ἀκρωτηρίων αὐτοῦ, ἐκλεκτὴν γῆν, οἶκον Βεθασιμούθ ἐπάνω πηγῆς πόλεως παραθαλασσίας,

25:10 filiis orientis cum filiis Ammon, et dabo eam in haereditatem, ut non sit ultra memoria filiorum Ammon in gentibus.
*H To the people of the east with the children of Ammon, and I will give it them for an inheritance: that there may be no more any remembrance of the children of Ammon among the nations.
Ver. 10. With, or "like thee." Moab (v. 11.) shall be treated like Ammon. H. — Heb. "As for the," &c. C.
τοὺς υἱοὺς Κεδὲμ ἑπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀμμὼν δέδωκα αὐτῷ εἰς κληρονομίαν, ὅπως μὴ μνεία γένηται τῶν υἱῶν Ἀμμών.

25:11 Et in Moab faciam judicia, et scient quia ego Dominus.]
And I will execute judgments in Moab: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

25:12 [Haec dicit Dominus Deus : Pro eo quod fecit Idumaea ultionem ut se vindicaret de filiis Juda, peccavitque delinquens, et vindictam expetivit de eis :
*H Thus saith the Lord God: Because Edom hath taken vengeance to revenge herself of the children of Juda, and hath greatly offended, and hath sought revenge of them:
Ver. 12. Revenge; exhorting the Chaldeans to destroy utterly, (Ps. cxxxvi. 7.) and seizing every opportunity of injuring the Jews. 2 Par. xxviii. 18. Amos i. 11.
Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐποίησεν ἡ Ἰδουμαία ἐν τῷ ἐκδικῆσαι αὐτοὺς ἐκδίκησιν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐμνησικάκησαν, καὶ ἐξεδίκησαν δίκην,
כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֔ה יַ֣עַן עֲשׂ֥וֹת אֱד֛וֹם בִּ/נְקֹ֥ם נָקָ֖ם לְ/בֵ֣ית יְהוּדָ֑ה וַ/יֶּאְשְׁמ֥וּ אָשׁ֖וֹם וְ/נִקְּמ֥וּ בָ/הֶֽם
25:13 idcirco haec dicit Dominus Deus : Extendam manum meam super Idumaeam, et auferam de ea hominem et jumentum, et faciam eam desertam ab austro : et qui sunt in Dedan, gladio cadent.
*H Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I will stretch forth my hand upon Edom, and will take away out of it man and beast, and will make it desolate from the south: and they that are in Dedan shall fall by the sword.
Ver. 13. South. Heb. "Theman," a city at one extremity. The Chaldeans laid waste the country, (C. xxxii. 29.) but did not remove the people, who seized the southern parts of Juda, till they were forced to submit to the Machabees.
διατοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος, καὶ ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν, καὶ ἐξολοθρεύσω ἐξ αὐτῆς ἄνθρωπον καὶ κτῆνος, καὶ θήσομαι αὐτὴν ἔρημον, καὶ ἐκ Θαιμὰν διωκόμενοι ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται.
לָ/כֵ֗ן כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֔ה וְ/נָטִ֤תִי יָדִ/י֙ עַל אֱד֔וֹם וְ/הִכְרַתִּ֥י מִמֶּ֖/נָּה אָדָ֣ם וּ/בְהֵמָ֑ה וּ/נְתַתִּ֤י/הָ חָרְבָּה֙ מִ/תֵּימָ֔ן וּ/דְדָ֖נֶ/ה בַּ/חֶ֥רֶב יִפֹּֽלוּ
25:14 Et dabo ultionem meam super Idumaeam per manum populi mei Israel : et facient in Edom juxta iram meam et furorem meum, et scient vindictam meam, dicit Dominus Deus.]
And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my wrath, and my fury: and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.
Καὶ δώσω ἐκδίκησίν μου ἐπὶ τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν ἐν χειρὶ λαοῦ μου Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ποιήσουσιν ἐν τῇ Ἰδουμαίᾳ κατὰ τὴν ὀργήν μου καὶ κατὰ τὸν θυμόν μου, καὶ ἐπιγνώσονται τὴν ἐκδίκησίν μου, λέγει Κύριος.

25:15 [Haec dicit Dominus Deus : Pro eo quod fecerunt Palaestini vindictam, et ulti se sunt toto animo, interficientes, et implentes inimicitias veteres,
*H Thus saith the Lord God: Because the Philistines have taken vengeance, and have revenged themselves with all their mind, destroying and satisfying old enmities:
Ver. 15. Enmities. They also watched every moment to injure the Jews. Amos i. 5. But Nabuchodonosor was irritated, because they had assisted Tyre. Jer. xlvii. 4.
Διατοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐποίησαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐν ἐκδικήσει, καὶ ἐξανέστησαν ἐκδίκησιν ἐπιχαίροντες ἐκ ψυχῆς, τοῦ ἐξαλεῖψαι ἕως ἑνὸς,
כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣/י יְהוִ֔ה יַ֛עַן עֲשׂ֥וֹת פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים בִּ/נְקָמָ֑ה וַ/יִּנָּקְמ֤וּ נָקָם֙ בִּ/שְׁאָ֣ט בְּ/נֶ֔פֶשׁ לְ/מַשְׁחִ֖ית אֵיבַ֥ת עוֹלָֽם
25:16 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus : Ecce ego extendam manum meam super Palaestinos, et interficiam interfectores, et perdam reliquias maritimae regionis,
*H Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will stretch forth my hand upon the Philistines, and will kill the killers, and will destroy the remnant of the sea coast.
Ver. 16. Killers. Heb. "Ceretheans." David's guards were of this nation. 2 K. viii. 18. They came originally from Crete; and the Sept. have here, "Cretans;" (C.) as Grabe substitutes for "Judges of Sidon." H. — Chal. "archers." — Remnant. They deserve not the name of a nation, having been much reduced by Egypt and the Chaldeans. C.
διατοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐκτείνω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους, καὶ ἐξολοθρεύσω Κρῆτας, καὶ ἀπολῶ τοὺς καταλοίπους τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν παραλίαν·

25:17 faciamque in eis ultiones magnas, arguens in furore : et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero vindictam meam super eos.]
And I will execute great vengeance upon them, rebuking them in fury: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
Καὶ ποιήσω ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐκδικήσεις μεγάλας, καὶ ἐπιγνώσονται διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος, ἐν τῷ δοῦναι τὴν ἐκδίκησίν μου ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
