You also shall be taken.
And bChemosh shall go forth into captivity,
His cpriests and his princes together.
No one shall escape.
The valley also shall perish,
And the plain shall be destroyed,
As the Lord has spoken.
That she may flee and get away;
For her cities shall be desolate,
Without any to dwell in them.
And cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
He ahas settled on his dregs,
And has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
Nor has he gone into captivity.
Therefore his taste remained in him,
And his scent has not changed.

Jeremiah 48:9
Give wings unto Moab - There is no hope in resistance, and to escape requires the speediest flight. I cannot conceive how Dahler came to translate thus: Tirez Moab par les chevaux , "Drag Moab away by the hair of the head."
| << Jeremiah 48:8 | Jeremiah 48:10 >> |
