Isaiah 15:5

15:5 My heart cries out because of Moab’s plight,

and for the fugitives stretched out as far as Zoar and Eglath Shelishiyah.

For they weep as they make their way up the ascent of Luhith;

they loudly lament their demise on the road to Horonaim.

from your holy, majestic palace!

Where are your zeal and power?

Do not hold back your tender compassion!

Jeremiah 4:19

4:19 I said,

“Oh, the feeling in the pit of my stomach!

I writhe in anguish.

Oh, the pain in my heart!

For I hear the sound of the trumpet;

the sound of the battle cry pierces my soul!

Jeremiah 31:20

31:20 Indeed, the people of Israel are my dear children.

They are the children I take delight in.

For even though I must often rebuke them,

I still remember them with fondness.

So I am deeply moved with pity for them

and will surely have compassion on them.

I, the Lord, affirm it!

Jeremiah 48:36

48:36 So my heart moans for Moab

my heart moans for the people of Kir Heres.

For the wealth they have gained will perish.

How can I treat you like Admah?

How can I make you like Zeboiim?

I have had a change of heart!

All my tender compassions are aroused!
