Eze 21:28-32:
21:28 Yahweh warns the Amonim
28 So you, son of humanity, prophesy and say, ‘The master Yahweh says this to the Amonim concerning their coming disgrace: A sword, a sword is drawn. It’s sharpened for the slaughter in order to devour, so it’ll be like lightning.[ref] 29 While prophets see empty visions for you and perform rituals to come up with lies for you, this sword will lie on the necks of the wicked who are about to be killed, whose day of punishment has come and whose time of disobedience is about to end.

30 Return the sword to its sheath. I’ll judge you in the place where you were created. In your native land 31 I’ll pour my indignation out on you! I’ll fan the fire of my rage against you and hand you over to cruel men—craftsmen of destruction. 32 You’ll become fuel for the fire. Your blood will be spilled right there in your own land. You won’t be remembered, because I, Yahweh have declared it.’ ”
25:1-7:
25:1 Amon’s punishment
25 Then Yahweh gave me another message: 2 “Son of humanity, keep looking towards the Amonim[ref] and prophesy against them. 3 Tell them to listen to this message because this is what the master Yahweh says: You celebrated my sanctuary being desecrated, and Yisrael (Israel) being desolate, and the kingdom of Yehudah (Judah) going into exile, 4 so because of that, listen: I’m giving you to a people in the east as their possession. They’ll set up camp against you and set up their tents among you. They’ll eat your fruit and drink your milk. 5 I’ll make the Amoni capital city, Rabah,[fn] into a camel pasture, and the Amoni people into a resting place for flocks. Then you people will know that I am Yahweh.
6 Because the master Yahweh says this: You clapped your hands and stamped your feet and celebrated with all the contempt within you against the Israeli nation, 7 therefore, listen Amon. I’ll strike you down and give you as plunder to the other nations. I’ll cut you off from the people groups and make you perish from among the countries. I’ll destroy you, and you’ll know that I am Yahweh.’
25:5 Now the modern city of Amman (in Jordan) has been built on Rabah’s ruins.
Amos 1:13-15:
Amon
“Even if the Amonim were three or four sins below the threshold,
I wouldn’t turn away their punishment,
because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead,
in order to grab territory.[ref]
14 I’ll light a fire in Rabah’s walls,
and it’ll devour its fortresses,
with a shout in the day of battle,
≈ with a storm in the day of the whirlwind.
15 Their king will go into captivity along with his officials,”
Zeph 2:8-11:
8 I’ve heard Moav’s (Moab’s) mocking[ref]
≈ and the Amonim’ insults.[ref]
and built up their forces against their border.
9 Commander-in-chief Yahweh, Yisrael’s (Israel’s) god, declares:
As certain as I’m alive,
≈ and the Amonim like Amorah (Gomorrah),
overrun by nettles and salt-pits—in ruins forever.[ref]
The remnant of my people will plunder them,
≈ and the remainder of my nation will take possession of them.
10 That will be the fruit of their pride,
because they mocked and talked themselves up
against the people of Commander-in-chief Yahweh.
11 The people of Moav (Moab) and Amon will be very scared when Yahweh punishes them.
He’ll do that so powerfully that people will stop worshipping all other gods.
People in every nation will worship Yahweh instead—each person in their own country.
