Judgment on Moab
“Woe to bNebo!
For it is plundered,
cKirjathaim is shamed and taken;
1The high stronghold is shamed and dismayed—
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;
For in the descent of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
You also shall be taken.
And bChemosh shall go forth into captivity,
His cpriests and his princes together.
| << Jeremiah 47:7 | Jeremiah 48:2 >> |
