The oracles against the foreign nations are in chapters 25 through 32, the center of the book, the same placement as Isaiah (chapters 13-27) and the Greek text of Jeremiah (25, 13; 31). Ezekiel's arrangement is careful: chapters 25-28 are oracles against six nations (Ammon, Moab, Edom, Philistia, Tyre, and Sidon), beginning with the nation directly east (Ammon) and then proceeding clockwise ending in the directrion of northwest (Sidon).
