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.
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.
| << Jeremiah 48:6 | Jeremiah 48:8 >> |
