Jeremiah 48:2 - John Wesley's Notes

Jeremiah 48:2

Judgment on Moab

1 Against ^aMoab. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel:
“Woe to ^bNebo!
For it is plundered,
^cKirjathaim is shamed and taken;
¹The high stronghold is shamed and dismayed—

2 ^aNo more praise of Moab.
In ^bHeshbon they have devised evil against her:
‘Come, and let us cut her off as a nation.’
You also shall be cut down, O ^cMadmen!
The sword shall pursue you;

3 A voice of crying shall be from ^aHoronaim:
‘Plundering and great destruction!’

4 “Moab is destroyed;
¹Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard;
