Come down from your glory,
And sit in thirst;
For the plunderer of Moab has come against you,
He has destroyed your strongholds.
bStand by the way and watch;
Ask him who flees
And her who escapes;
Say, ‘What has happened?’
Because he exalted himself against the Lord.
Moab shall wallow in his vomit,
And he shall also be in derision.
bWas he found among thieves?
For whenever you speak of him,
You shake your head in cscorn.
| << Jeremiah 48:19 | Jeremiah 48:21 >> |
