Jeremiah 48




jub@Jeremiah:48:1 @ Against Moab thus hath the LORD of the hosts, the God of Israel said; Woe unto Nebo! for it is destroyed; it is confounded; Kiriathaim is taken; Misgab is confounded and dismayed.

jub@Jeremiah:48:2 @ Moab shall no longer be praised; they have devised evil against Heshbon, saying, Come, and let us cut it off from [being] a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.

jub@Jeremiah:48:3 @ A voice of crying [shall be] from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.

jub@Jeremiah:48:4 @ Moab is destroyed; they have caused the cry of her little ones to be heard.

jub@Jeremiah:48:5 @ For in the ascending [road] of Luhith he that weeps shall go up weeping; for in the descending [road] of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.

jub@Jeremiah:48:6 @ Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.

jub@Jeremiah:48:7 @ For because thou hast trusted in thy works; in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken; and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity [with] his priests and his princes together.

jub@Jeremiah:48:8 @ And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed as the LORD has spoken.

jub@Jeremiah:48:9 @ Give wings unto Moab that he may flee and get away, for his cities shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.

jub@Jeremiah:48:10 @ Cursed [be] he that does the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed [be] he that keeps back his sword from blood.

jub@Jeremiah:48:11 @ Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.

jub@Jeremiah:48:12 @ Therefore, behold, the days come, said the LORD, that I will send unto him captors that shall take him captive and shall empty his vessels and break his wineskins.

jub@Jeremiah:48:13 @ And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.

jub@Jeremiah:48:14 @ How do ye say, We [are] mighty and strong men for the war?

jub@Jeremiah:48:15 @ Moab is spoiled, and his cities destroyed, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, said the King whose name [is] the LORD of the hosts.

jub@Jeremiah:48:16 @ The calamity of Moab [is] near to come, and his affliction hastens fast.

jub@Jeremiah:48:17 @ All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken: the beautiful rod!

jub@Jeremiah:48:18 @ Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from [thy] glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab has come against thee [and] has dissipated thy strong holds.

jub@Jeremiah:48:19 @ O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch; ask her that flees and her that escapes [and] say, What has happened?

jub@Jeremiah:48:20 @ Moab is confounded, for it is broken down; howl and cry; tell it in Arnon that Moab is spoiled,

jub@Jeremiah:48:21 @ and judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,

jub@Jeremiah:48:22 @ and upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Bethdiblathaim,

jub@Jeremiah:48:23 @ and upon Kiriathaim, and upon Bethgamul, and upon Bethmeon,

jub@Jeremiah:48:24 @ and upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, those that are far and those that are near.

jub@Jeremiah:48:25 @ The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, said the LORD.

jub@Jeremiah:48:26 @ Make him drunken, for he magnified [himself] against the LORD; Moab shall also wallow in his vomit, and be in derision.

jub@Jeremiah:48:27 @ For was not Israel a derision unto thee, as if he were found among thieves? for since thou hast spoken of him, thou hast slipped.

jub@Jeremiah:48:28 @ O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities and dwell in the rock and be like the dove [that] makes her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.

jub@Jeremiah:48:29 @ We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness and his arrogancy and his pride and the haughtiness of his heart.

jub@Jeremiah:48:30 @ I know his wrath, saith the LORD, but it shall have no effect; his lies shall not be to his advantage.

jub@Jeremiah:48:31 @ Therefore I will weep over Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; [my heart] shall mourn for the men of Kirheres.

jub@Jeremiah:48:32 @ O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer; thy shoots are gone over the sea; they reach [even] to the sea of Jazer; the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

jub@Jeremiah:48:33 @ And joy and gladness shall be taken from the plentiful field and from the land of Moab; and I shall cause wine to cease from the winepresses; no one shall tread with song; [their song shall be] no song.

jub@Jeremiah:48:34 @ The cry, from Heshbon [even] unto Elealeh, [and even] unto Jahaz, they have uttered their voice; from Zoar [even] unto Horonaim, [as] a heifer of three years old; for the waters of Nimrim shall also be destroyed.

jub@Jeremiah:48:35 @ Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that offers upon [an] altar and him that burns incense to his gods.

jub@Jeremiah:48:36 @ Therefore my heart shall sound like flutes for Moab, and my heart shall sound like flutes for the men of Kirheres because the riches [that] he has gotten are perished.

jub@Jeremiah:48:37 @ For every head [shall be] bald, and every beard shaved: upon all the hands [shall be] cuttings, and upon all the loins sackcloth.

jub@Jeremiah:48:38 @ [There shall be] lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab and in the streets thereof; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which there [is] no pleasure, said the LORD.

jub@Jeremiah:48:39 @ They shall howl, [saying], How is it broken down! how has Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all those about him.

jub@Jeremiah:48:40 @ For thus hath the LORD said: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle and shall spread his wings over Moab.

jub@Jeremiah:48:41 @ The cities are taken, and the strong holds are taken, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

jub@Jeremiah:48:42 @ And Moab shall be destroyed from [being] a people because he has magnified [himself] against the LORD.

jub@Jeremiah:48:43 @ Fear and the pit and the snare [shall be] upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, said the LORD.

jub@Jeremiah:48:44 @ He that flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare; for I will bring upon him, [even] upon Moab, the year of their visitation, said the LORD.

jub@Jeremiah:48:45 @ Those that fled from the force stood under the shadow of Heshbon; because fire came forth out of Heshbon and a flame from the midst of Sihon and burned the corner of Moab and the crown of the head of the rebellious sons.

jub@Jeremiah:48:46 @ Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh have perished; for thy sons are taken prisoners into captivity, and thy daughters [are] captives.

jub@Jeremiah:48:47 @ Yet I will turn again the captivity of Moab in the last of the times, said the LORD. Thus far [is] the judgment of Moab.:
