Jeremiah 46:1--49:39

46:1

The word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which came to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

against the Gentiles
<01471>_;

46:2

Against Egypt
<04714>_,

against the army
<02428>

of Pharaohnecho
<06549>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

which was by the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>

in Carchemish
<03751>_,

which Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

smote
<05221> (8689)

in the fourth
<07243>

year
<08141>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_.

46:3

Order
<06186> (8798)

ye the buckler
<04043>

and shield
<06793>_,

and draw near
<05066> (8798)

to battle
<04421>_.

46:4

Harness
<0631> (8798)

the horses
<05483>_;

and get up
<05927> (8798)_,

ye horsemen
<06571>_,

and stand forth
<03320> (8690)

with [your] helmets
<03553>_;

furbish
<04838> (8798)

the spears
<07420>_,

[and] put on
<03847> (8798)

the brigandines
<05630>_.

46:5

Wherefore have I seen
<07200> (8804)

them dismayed
<02844>

[and] turned
<05472> (8737)

away back
<0268>_?

and their mighty ones
<01368>

are beaten down
<03807> (8714)_,

and are fled
<05127> (8804)

apace
<04498>_,

and look not back
<06437> (8689)_:

[for] fear
<04032>

[was] round about
<05439>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{beaten...: Heb. broken in pieces} {fled...: Heb. fled a flight}

46:6

Let not the swift
<07031>

flee away
<05127> (8799)_,

nor the mighty man
<01368>

escape
<04422> (8735)_;

they shall stumble
<03782> (8804)_,

and fall
<05307> (8804)

toward the north
<06828>

by
<03027>

the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>_.

46:7

Who [is] this [that] cometh up
<05927> (8799)

as a flood
<02975>_,

whose waters
<04325>

are moved
<01607> (8691)

as the rivers
<05104>_?

46:8

Egypt
<04714>

riseth up
<05927> (8799)

like a flood
<02975>_,

and [his] waters
<04325>

are moved
<01607> (8704)

like the rivers
<05104>_;

and he saith
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go up
<05927> (8799)_,

[and] will cover
<03680> (8762)

the earth
<0776>_;

I will destroy
<06> (8686)

the city
<05892>

and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof.

46:9

Come up
<05927> (8798)_,

ye horses
<05483>_;

and rage
<01984> (8703)_,

ye chariots
<07393>_;

and let the mighty men
<01368>

come forth
<03318> (8799)_;

the Ethiopians
<03568>

and the Libyans
<06316>_,

that handle
<08610> (8802)

the shield
<04043>_;

and the Lydians
<03866>_,

that handle
<08610> (8802)

[and] bend
<01869> (8802)

the bow
<07198>_.

{the Ethiopians: Heb. Cush} {the Libyans: Heb. Put}

46:10

For this [is] the day
<03117>

of the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>_,

a day
<03117>

of vengeance
<05360>_,

that he may avenge
<05358> (8736)

him of his adversaries
<06862>_:

and the sword
<02719>

shall devour
<0398> (8804)_,

and it shall be satiate
<07646> (8804)

and made drunk
<07301> (8804)

with their blood
<01818>_:

for the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>

hath a sacrifice
<02077>

in the north
<06828>

country
<0776>

by the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>_.

46:11

Go up
<05927> (8798)

into Gilead
<01568>_,

and take
<03947> (8798)

balm
<06875>_,

O virgin
<01330>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

in vain
<07723>

shalt thou use many
<07235> (8689)

medicines
<07499>_;

[for] thou shalt not be cured
<08585>_.

{thou shalt...: Heb. no cure shall be unto thee}

46:12

The nations
<01471>

have heard
<08085> (8804)

of thy shame
<07036>_,

and thy cry
<06682>

hath filled
<04390> (8804)

the land
<0776>_:

for the mighty man
<01368>

hath stumbled
<03782> (8804)

against the mighty
<01368>_,

[and] they are fallen
<05307> (8804)

both
<08147>

together
<03162>_.

46:13

The word
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

how Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

should come
<0935> (8800)

[and] smite
<05221> (8687)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

46:14

Declare
<05046> (8685)

ye in Egypt
<04714>_,

and publish
<08085> (8685)

in Migdol
<04024>_,

and publish
<08085> (8685)

in Noph
<05297>

and in Tahpanhes
<08471>_:

say
<0559> (8798)

ye, Stand fast
<03320> (8690)_,

and prepare
<03559> (8685)

thee; for the sword
<02719>

shall devour
<0398> (8804)

round about
<05439>

thee.

46:15

Why are thy valiant
<047>

[men] swept away
<05502> (8738)_?

they stood
<05975> (8804)

not, because the LORD
<03068>

did drive
<01920> (8804)

them.

46:16

He made many
<07235> (8689)

to fall
<03782> (8802)_,

yea, one
<0376>

fell
<05307> (8804)

upon another
<07453>_:

and they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

and let us go again
<07725> (8799)

to our own people
<05971>_,

and to the land
<0776>

of our nativity
<04138>_,

from
<06440>

the oppressing
<03238> (8802)

sword
<02719>_.

{made...: Heb. multiplied the faller}

46:17

They did cry
<07121> (8804)

there, Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

[is but] a noise
<07588>_;

he hath passed
<05674> (8689)

the time appointed
<04150>_.

46:18

[As] I live
<02416>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the King
<04428>_,

whose name
<08034>

[is] the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Surely as Tabor
<08396>

[is] among the mountains
<02022>_,

and as Carmel
<03760>

by the sea
<03220>_,

[so] shall he come
<0935> (8799)_.

46:19

O thou daughter
<01323>

dwelling
<03427> (8802)

in Egypt
<04714>_,

furnish
<06213> (8798)

thyself to go into captivity
<03627> <01473>_:

for Noph
<05297>

shall be waste
<08047>

and desolate
<03341> (8738)

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

{furnish...: Heb. make thee instruments of captivity}

46:20

Egypt
<04714>

[is like] a very fair
<03304>

heifer
<05697>_,

[but] destruction
<07171>

cometh
<0935> (8804)_;

it cometh out
<0935> (8804)

of the north
<06828>_.

46:21

Also her hired men
<07916>

[are] in the midst
<07130>

of her like fatted
<04770>

bullocks
<05695>_;

for they also are turned back
<06437> (8689)_,

[and] are fled away
<05127> (8804)

together
<03162>_:

they did not stand
<05975> (8804)_,

because the day
<03117>

of their calamity
<0343>

was come
<0935> (8804)

upon them, [and] the time
<06256>

of their visitation
<06486>_.

{fatted...: Heb. bullocks of the stall}

46:22

The voice
<06963>

thereof shall go
<03212> (8799)

like a serpent
<05175>_;

for they shall march
<03212> (8799)

with an army
<02428>_,

and come
<0935> (8804)

against her with axes
<07134>_,

as hewers
<02404> (8802)

of wood
<06086>_.

46:23

They shall cut down
<03772> (8804)

her forest
<03293>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

though it cannot be searched
<02713> (8735)_;

because they are more
<07231> (8804)

than the grasshoppers
<0697>_,

and [are] innumerable
<0369> <04557>_.

46:24

The daughter
<01323>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall be confounded
<03001> (8689)_;

she shall be delivered
<05414> (8738)

into the hand
<03027>

of the people
<05971>

of the north
<06828>_.

46:25

The LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)_;

Behold, I will punish
<06485> (8802)

the multitude
<0527> (8676) <0528>

of No
<04996>_,

and Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and Egypt
<04714>_,

with their gods
<0430>_,

and their kings
<04428>_;

even Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and [all] them that trust
<0982> (8802)

in him: {multitude: or, nourisher: Heb. Amon}

46:26

And I will deliver
<05414> (8804)

them into the hand
<03027>

of those that seek
<01245> (8764)

their lives
<05315>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of his servants
<05650>_:

and afterward
<0310>

it shall be inhabited
<07931> (8799)_,

as in the days
<03117>

of old
<06924>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

46:27

But fear
<03372> (8799)

not thou, O my servant
<05650>

Jacob
<03290>_,

and be not dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,

O Israel
<03478>_:

for, behold, I will save
<03467> (8688)

thee from afar off
<07350>_,

and thy seed
<02233>

from the land
<0776>

of their captivity
<07628>_;

and Jacob
<03290>

shall return
<07725> (8804)_,

and be in rest
<08252> (8804)

and at ease
<07599> (8768)_,

and none shall make [him] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.

46:28

Fear
<03372> (8799)

thou not, O Jacob
<03290>

my servant
<05650>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

for I [am] with thee; for I will make
<06213> (8799)

a full end
<03617>

of all the nations
<01471>

whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)

thee: but I will not make
<06213> (8799)

a full end
<03617>

of thee, but correct
<03256> (8765)

thee in measure
<04941>_;

yet will I not leave thee wholly
<05352> (8763)

unpunished
<05352> (8762)_.

{not leave...: or, not utterly cut thee off}

47:1

The word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

that came to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

against the Philistines
<06430>_,

before that Pharaoh
<06547>

smote
<05221> (8686)

Gaza
<05804>_.

{Gaza: Heb. Azzah}

47:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Behold, waters
<04325>

rise up
<05927> (8802)

out of the north
<06828>_,

and shall be an overflowing
<07857> (8802)

flood
<05158>_,

and shall overflow
<07857> (8799)

the land
<0776>_,

and all that is therein
<04393>_;

the city
<05892>_,

and them that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein: then the men
<0120>

shall cry
<02199> (8804)_,

and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the land
<0776>

shall howl
<03213> (8689)_.

{all that...: Heb. the fulness thereof}

47:3

At the noise
<06963>

of the stamping
<08161>

of the hoofs
<06541>

of his strong
<047>

[horses], at the rushing
<07494>

of his chariots
<07393>_,

[and at] the rumbling
<01995>

of his wheels
<01534>_,

the fathers
<01>

shall not look back
<06437> (8689)

to [their] children
<01121>

for feebleness
<07510>

of hands
<03027>_;

47:4

Because of the day
<03117>

that cometh
<0935> (8802)

to spoil
<07703> (8800)

all the Philistines
<06430>_,

[and] to cut off
<03772> (8687)

from Tyrus
<06865>

and Zidon
<06721>

every helper
<05826> (8802)

that remaineth
<08300>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

will spoil
<07703> (8802)

the Philistines
<06430>_,

the remnant
<07611>

of the country
<0339>

of Caphtor
<03731>_.

{the country: Heb. the isle}

47:5

Baldness
<07144>

is come
<0935> (8804)

upon Gaza
<05804>_;

Ashkelon
<0831>

is cut off
<01820> (8738)

[with] the remnant
<07611>

of their valley
<06010>_:

how long wilt thou cut
<01413> (8704)

thyself?

47:6

O
<01945>

thou sword
<02719>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

how long [will it be] ere
<03808>

thou be quiet
<08252> (8799)_?

put up
<0622> (8734)

thyself into thy scabbard
<08593>_,

rest
<07280> (8734)_,

and be still
<01826> (8798)_.

{put...: Heb. gather thyself}

47:7

How can it be quiet
<08252> (8799)_,

seeing the LORD
<03068>

hath given it a charge
<06680> (8765)

against Ashkelon
<0831>_,

and against the sea
<03220>

shore
<02348>_?

there hath he appointed
<03259> (8804)

it. {How...: Heb. How canst thou}

48:1

Against Moab
<04124>

thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Woe
<01945>

unto Nebo
<05015>_!

for it is spoiled
<07703> (8795)_:

Kiriathaim
<07156>

is confounded
<03001> (8689)

[and] taken
<03920> (8738)_:

Misgab
<04869>

is confounded
<03001> (8689)

and dismayed
<02865> (8804)_.

{Misgab: or, the high place}

48:2

[There shall be] no more praise
<08416>

of Moab
<04124>_:

in Heshbon
<02809>

they have devised
<02803> (8804)

evil
<07451>

against it; come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us cut it off
<03772> (8686)

from [being] a nation
<01471>_.

Also thou shalt be cut down
<01826> (8735)_,

O Madmen
<04086>_;

the sword
<02719>

shall pursue
<03212> (8799)

thee
<0310>_.

{be cut...: or, be brought to silence} {pursue...: Heb. go after thee}

48:3

A voice
<06963>

of crying
<06818>

[shall be] from Horonaim
<02773>_,

spoiling
<07701>

and great
<01419>

destruction
<07667>_.

48:4

Moab
<04124>

is destroyed
<07665> (8738)_;

her little ones
<06810>

have caused a cry
<02201>

to be heard
<08085> (8689)_.

48:5

For in the going up
<04608>

of Luhith
<03872>

continual
<01065>

weeping
<01065>

shall go up
<05927> (8799)_;

for in the going down
<04174>

of Horonaim
<02773>

the enemies
<06862>

have heard
<08085> (8804)

a cry
<06818>

of destruction
<07667>_.

{continual...: Heb. weeping with weeping}

48:6

Flee
<05127> (8798)_,

save
<04422> (8761)

your lives
<05315>_,

and be
<01961> (8799)

like the heath
<06176>

in the wilderness
<04057>_.

{the heath: or, a naked tree}

48:7

For because thou hast trusted
<0982> (8800)

in thy works
<04639>

and in thy treasures
<0214>_,

thou shalt also be taken
<03920> (8735)_:

and Chemosh
<03645>

shall go forth
<03318> (8804)

into captivity
<01473>

[with] his priests
<03548>

and his princes
<08269>

together
<03162>_.

48:8

And the spoiler
<07703> (8802)

shall come
<0935> (8799)

upon every city
<05892>_,

and no city
<05892>

shall escape
<04422> (8735)_:

the valley
<06010>

also shall perish
<06> (8804)_,

and the plain
<04334>

shall be destroyed
<08045> (8738)_,

as the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<0559> (8804)_.

48:9

Give
<05414> (8798)

wings
<06731>

unto Moab
<04124>_,

that it may flee
<05323> (8800)

and get away
<03318> (8799)_:

for the cities
<05892>

thereof shall be desolate
<08047>_,

without any to dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein
<02004>_.

48:10

Cursed
<0779> (8803)

[be] he that doeth
<06213> (8802)

the work
<04399>

of the LORD
<03068>

deceitfully
<07423>_,

and cursed
<0779> (8803)

[be] he that keepeth back
<04513> (8802)

his sword
<02719>

from blood
<01818>_.

{deceitfully: or, negligently}

48:11

Moab
<04124>

hath been at ease
<07599> (8768)

from his youth
<05271>_,

and he hath settled
<08252> (8802)

on his lees
<08105>_,

and hath not been emptied
<07324> (8717)

from vessel
<03627>

to vessel
<03627>_,

neither hath he gone
<01980> (8804)

into captivity
<01473>_:

therefore his taste
<02940>

remained
<05975> (8804)

in him, and his scent
<07381>

is not changed
<04171> (8738)_.

{remained: Heb. stood}

48:12

Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8802)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that I will send
<07971> (8765)

unto him wanderers
<06808> (8802)_,

that shall cause him to wander
<06808> (8765)_,

and shall empty
<07324> (8686)

his vessels
<03627>_,

and break
<05310> (8762)

their bottles
<05035>_.

48:13

And Moab
<04124>

shall be ashamed
<0954> (8804)

of Chemosh
<03645>_,

as the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

was ashamed
<0954> (8804)

of Bethel
<01008>

their confidence
<04009>_.

48:14

How say
<0559> (8799)

ye, We [are] mighty
<01368>

and strong
<02428>

men
<0582>

for the war
<04421>_?

48:15

Moab
<04124>

is spoiled
<07703> (8795)_,

and gone up
<05927> (8804)

[out of] her cities
<05892>_,

and his chosen
<04005>

young men
<0970>

are gone down
<03381> (8804)

to the slaughter
<02874>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the King
<04428>_,

whose name
<08034>

[is] the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

{his...: Heb. the choice of}

48:16

The calamity
<0343>

of Moab
<04124>

[is] near
<07138>

to come
<0935> (8800)_,

and his affliction
<07451>

hasteth
<04116> (8765)

fast
<03966>_.

48:17

All ye that are about
<05439>

him, bemoan
<05110> (8798)

him; and all ye that know
<03045> (8802)

his name
<08034>_,

say
<0559> (8798)_,

How is the strong
<05797>

staff
<04294>

broken
<07665> (8738)_,

[and] the beautiful
<08597>

rod
<04731>_!

48:18

Thou daughter
<01323>

that dost inhabit
<03427> (8802)

Dibon
<01769>_,

come down
<03381> (8798)

from [thy] glory
<03519>_,

and sit
<03427> (8798)

in thirst
<06772>_;

for the spoiler
<07703> (8802)

of Moab
<04124>

shall come
<05927> (8804)

upon thee, [and] he shall destroy
<07843> (8765)

thy strong holds
<04013>_.

48:19

O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)

of Aroer
<06177>_,

stand
<05975> (8798)

by the way
<01870>_,

and espy
<06822> (8761)_;

ask
<07592> (8798)

him that fleeth
<05127> (8801)_,

and her that escapeth
<04422> (8737)_,

[and] say
<0559> (8798)_,

What is done
<01961> (8738)_?

{inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}

48:20

Moab
<04124>

is confounded
<03001> (8689)_;

for it is broken down
<02865> (8804)_:

howl
<03213> (8685)

and cry
<02199> (8798)_;

tell
<05046> (8685)

ye it in Arnon
<0769>_,

that Moab
<04124>

is spoiled
<07703> (8795)_,

48:21

And judgment
<04941>

is come
<0935> (8804)

upon the plain
<04334>

country
<0776>_;

upon Holon
<02473>_,

and upon Jahazah
<03096>_,

and upon Mephaath
<04158>_,

48:22

And upon Dibon
<01769>_,

and upon Nebo
<05015>_,

and upon Bethdiblathaim
<01015>_,

48:23

And upon Kiriathaim
<07156>_,

and upon Bethgamul
<01014>_,

and upon Bethmeon
<01010>_,

48:24

And upon Kerioth
<07152>_,

and upon Bozrah
<01224>_,

and upon all the cities
<05892>

of the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

far
<07350>

or near
<07138>_.

48:25

The horn
<07161>

of Moab
<04124>

is cut off
<01438> (8738)_,

and his arm
<02220>

is broken
<07665> (8738)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

48:26

Make ye him drunken
<07937> (8685)_:

for he magnified
<01431> (8689)

[himself] against the LORD
<03068>_:

Moab
<04124>

also shall wallow
<05606> (8804)

in his vomit
<06892>_,

and he also shall be in derision
<07814>_.

48:27

For was not Israel
<03478>

a derision
<07814>

unto thee? was he found
<04672> (8738)

among thieves
<01590>_?

for since
<01767>

thou spakest
<01697>

of him, thou skippedst
<05110> (8709)

for joy. {skippedst...: or, movedst thyself}

48:28

O ye that dwell
<03427> (8802)

in Moab
<04124>_,

leave
<05800> (8798)

the cities
<05892>_,

and dwell
<07931> (8798)

in the rock
<05553>_,

and be like the dove
<03123>

[that] maketh her nest
<07077> (8762)

in the sides
<05676>

of the hole's
<06354>

mouth
<06310>_.

48:29

We have heard
<08085> (8804)

the pride
<01347>

of Moab
<04124>_,

(he is exceeding
<03966>

proud
<01343>)

his loftiness
<01363>_,

and his arrogancy
<01346>_,

and his pride
<01347>_,

and the haughtiness
<07312>

of his heart
<03820>_.

48:30

I know
<03045> (8804)

his wrath
<05678>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

but [it shall] not [be] so; his lies
<0907>

shall not so effect
<06213> (8804)

[it]. {his lies...: or, those on whom he stayeth (Heb. his bars) do not right}

48:31

Therefore will I howl
<03213> (8686)

for Moab
<04124>_,

and I will cry out
<02199> (8799)

for all Moab
<04124>_;

[mine heart] shall mourn
<01897> (8799)

for the men
<0582>

of Kirheres
<07025>_.

48:32

O vine
<01612>

of Sibmah
<07643>_,

I will weep
<01058> (8799)

for thee with the weeping
<01065>

of Jazer
<03270>_:

thy plants
<05189>

are gone over
<05674> (8804)

the sea
<03220>_,

they reach
<05060> (8804)

[even] to the sea
<03220>

of Jazer
<03270>_:

the spoiler
<07703> (8802)

is fallen
<05307> (8804)

upon thy summer fruits
<07019>

and upon thy vintage
<01210>_.

48:33

And joy
<08057>

and gladness
<01524>

is taken
<0622> (8738)

from the plentiful field
<03759>_,

and from the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_;

and I have caused wine
<03196>

to fail
<07673> (8689)

from the winepresses
<03342>_:

none shall tread
<01869> (8799)

with shouting
<01959>_;

[their] shouting
<01959>

[shall be] no shouting
<01959>_.

48:34

From the cry
<02201>

of Heshbon
<02809>

[even] unto Elealeh
<0500>_,

[and even] unto Jahaz
<03096>_,

have they uttered
<05414> (8804)

their voice
<06963>_,

from Zoar
<06820>

[even] unto Horonaim
<02773>_,

[as] an heifer
<05697>

of three years old
<07992>_:

for the waters
<04325>

also of Nimrim
<05249>

shall be desolate
<04923>_.

{desolate: Heb. desolations}

48:35

Moreover I will cause to cease
<07673> (8689)

in Moab
<04124>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

him that offereth
<05927> (8688)

in the high places
<01116>_,

and him that burneth incense
<06999> (8688)

to his gods
<0430>_.

48:36

Therefore mine heart
<03820>

shall sound
<01993> (8799)

for Moab
<04124>

like pipes
<02485>_,

and mine heart
<03820>

shall sound
<01993> (8799)

like pipes
<02485>

for the men
<0582>

of Kirheres
<07025>_:

because the riches
<03502>

[that] he hath gotten
<06213> (8804)

are perished
<06> (8804)_.

48:37

For every head
<07218>

[shall be] bald
<07144>_,

and every beard
<02206>

clipped
<01639> (8803)_:

upon all the hands
<03027>

[shall be] cuttings
<01417>_,

and upon the loins
<04975>

sackcloth
<08242>_.

{clipped: Heb. diminished}

48:38

[There shall be] lamentation
<04553>

generally upon all the housetops
<01406>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and in the streets
<07339>

thereof: for I have broken
<07665> (8804)

Moab
<04124>

like a vessel
<03627>

wherein [is] no pleasure
<02656>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

48:39

They shall howl
<03213> (8685)_,

[saying], How is it broken down
<02865> (8804)_!

how hath Moab
<04124>

turned
<06437> (8689)

the back
<06203>

with shame
<0954> (8804)_!

so shall Moab
<04124>

be a derision
<07814>

and a dismaying
<04288>

to all them about
<05439>

him. {back: Heb. neck}

48:40

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Behold, he shall fly
<01675> (8799)

as an eagle
<05404>_,

and shall spread
<06566> (8804)

his wings
<03671>

over Moab
<04124>_.

48:41

Kerioth
<07152>

is taken
<03920> (8738)_,

and the strong holds
<04679>

are surprised
<08610> (8738)_,

and the mighty men's
<01368>

hearts
<03820>

in Moab
<04124>

at that day
<03117>

shall be as the heart
<03820>

of a woman
<0802>

in her pangs
<06887> (8688)_.

{Kerioth: or, The cities}

48:42

And Moab
<04124>

shall be destroyed
<08045> (8738)

from [being] a people
<05971>_,

because he hath magnified
<01431> (8689)

[himself] against the LORD
<03068>_.

48:43

Fear
<06343>_,

and the pit
<06354>_,

and the snare
<06341>_,

[shall be] upon thee, O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)

of Moab
<04124>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

48:44

He that fleeth
<05127> (8801) (8675) <05211>

from
<06440>

the fear
<06343>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

into the pit
<06354>_;

and he that getteth up
<05927> (8802)

out of the pit
<06354>

shall be taken
<03920> (8735)

in the snare
<06341>_:

for I will bring
<0935> (8686)

upon it, [even] upon Moab
<04124>_,

the year
<08141>

of their visitation
<06486>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

48:45

They that fled
<05127> (8801)

stood
<05975> (8804)

under the shadow
<06738>

of Heshbon
<02809>

because of the force
<03581>_:

but a fire
<0784>

shall come forth
<03318> (8804)

out of Heshbon
<02809>_,

and a flame
<03852>

from the midst
<0996>

of Sihon
<05511>_,

and shall devour
<0398> (8799)

the corner
<06285>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and the crown of the head
<06936>

of the tumultuous
<07588>

ones
<01121>_.

{tumultuous...: Heb. children of noise}

48:46

Woe
<0188>

be unto thee, O Moab
<04124>_!

the people
<05971>

of Chemosh
<03645>

perisheth
<06> (8804)_:

for thy sons
<01121>

are taken
<03947> (8795)

captives
<07628>_,

and thy daughters
<01323>

captives
<07633>_.

{captives, and: Heb. in captivity, etc}

48:47

Yet will I bring again
<07725> (8804)

the captivity
<07622>

of Moab
<04124>

in the latter
<0319>

days
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Thus far
<02008>

[is] the judgment
<04941>

of Moab
<04124>_.

49:1

Concerning the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_,

thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Hath Israel
<03478>

no sons
<01121>_?

hath he no heir
<03423> (8802)_?

why [then] doth their king
<04428>

inherit
<03423> (8804)

Gad
<01410>_,

and his people
<05971>

dwell
<03427> (8804)

in his cities
<05892>_?

{Concerning: or, Against} {their king: or, Melcom}

49:2

Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8802)_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that I will cause an alarm
<08643>

of war
<04421>

to be heard
<08085> (8689)

in Rabbah
<07237>

of the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_;

and it shall be a desolate
<08077>

heap
<08510>_,

and her daughters
<01323>

shall be burned
<03341> (8799)

with fire
<0784>_:

then shall Israel
<03478>

be heir
<03423> (8804)

unto them that were his heirs
<03423> (8802)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

49:3

Howl
<03213> (8685)_,

O Heshbon
<02809>_,

for Ai
<05857>

is spoiled
<07703> (8795)_:

cry
<06817> (8798)_,

ye daughters
<01323>

of Rabbah
<07237>_,

gird
<02296> (8798)

you with sackcloth
<08242>_;

lament
<05594> (8798)_,

and run to and fro
<07751> (8708)

by the hedges
<01448>_;

for their king
<04428>

shall go
<03212> (8799)

into captivity
<01473>_,

[and] his priests
<03548>

and his princes
<08269>

together
<03162>_.

{their king: or, Melcom}

49:4

Wherefore gloriest
<01984> (8691)

thou in the valleys
<06010>_,

thy flowing
<02100> (8802)

valley
<06010>_,

O backsliding
<07728>

daughter
<01323>_?

that trusted
<0982> (8802)

in her treasures
<0214>_,

[saying], Who shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto me? {thy...: or, thy valley floweth away}

49:5

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

a fear
<06343>

upon thee, saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>_,

from all those that be about
<05439>

thee; and ye shall be driven out
<05080> (8738)

every man
<0376>

right forth
<06440>_;

and none shall gather up
<06908> (8764)

him that wandereth
<05074> (8802)_.

49:6

And afterward
<0310>

I will bring again
<07725> (8686)

the captivity
<07622>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

49:7

Concerning Edom
<0123>_,

thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_;

[Is] wisdom
<02451>

no more in Teman
<08487>_?

is counsel
<06098>

perished
<06> (8804)

from the prudent
<0995> (8801)_?

is their wisdom
<02451>

vanished
<05628> (8738)_?

49:8

Flee
<05127> (8798)

ye, turn back
<06437> (8717)_,

dwell
<03427> (8800)

deep
<06009> (8689)_,

O inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Dedan
<01719>_;

for I will bring
<0935> (8689)

the calamity
<0343>

of Esau
<06215>

upon him, the time
<06256>

[that] I will visit
<06485> (8804)

him. {turn...: or, they are turned back}

49:9

If grapegatherers
<01219> (8802)

come
<0935> (8804)

to thee, would they not leave
<07604> (8686)

[some] gleaning grapes
<05955>_?

if thieves
<01590>

by night
<03915>_,

they will destroy
<07843> (8689)

till they have enough
<01767>_.

{till...: Heb. their sufficiency}

49:10

But I have made Esau
<06215>

bare
<02834> (8804)_,

I have uncovered
<01540> (8765)

his secret places
<04565>_,

and he shall not be able
<03201> (8799)

to hide
<02247> (8736)

himself: his seed
<02233>

is spoiled
<07703> (8795)_,

and his brethren
<0251>_,

and his neighbours
<07934>_,

and he [is] not.

49:11

Leave
<05800> (8798)

thy fatherless children
<03490>_,

I will preserve [them] alive
<02421> (8762)_;

and let thy widows
<0490>

trust
<0982> (8799)

in me.

49:12

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Behold, they whose judgment
<04941>

[was] not to drink
<08354> (8800)

of the cup
<03563>

have assuredly
<08354> (8800)

drunken
<08354> (8799)_;

and [art] thou he [that] shall altogether
<05352> (8800)

go unpunished
<05352> (8735)_?

thou shalt not go unpunished
<05352> (8735)_,

but thou shalt surely
<08354> (8800)

drink
<08354> (8799)

[of it].

49:13

For I have sworn
<07650> (8738)

by myself, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that Bozrah
<01224>

shall become a desolation
<08047>_,

a reproach
<02781>_,

a waste
<02721>_,

and a curse
<07045>_;

and all the cities
<05892>

thereof shall be perpetual
<05769>

wastes
<02723>_.

49:14

I have heard
<08085> (8804)

a rumour
<08052>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

and an ambassador
<06735>

is sent
<07971> (8803)

unto the heathen
<01471>_,

[saying], Gather ye together
<06908> (8690)_,

and come
<0935> (8798)

against her, and rise up
<06965> (8798)

to the battle
<04421>_.

49:15

For, lo, I will make
<05414> (8804)

thee small
<06996>

among the heathen
<01471>_,

[and] despised
<0959> (8803)

among men
<0120>_.

49:16

Thy terribleness
<08606>

hath deceived
<05377> (8689)

thee, [and] the pride
<02087>

of thine heart
<03820>_,

O thou that dwellest
<07931> (8802)

in the clefts
<02288>

of the rock
<05553>_,

that holdest
<08610> (8802)

the height
<04791>

of the hill
<01389>_:

though thou shouldest make thy nest
<07064>

as high
<01361> (8686)

as the eagle
<05404>_,

I will bring thee down
<03381> (8686)

from thence, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

49:17

Also Edom
<0123>

shall be a desolation
<08047>_:

every one that goeth
<05674> (8802)

by it shall be astonished
<08074> (8799)_,

and shall hiss
<08319> (8799)

at all the plagues
<04347>

thereof.

49:18

As in the overthrow
<04114>

of Sodom
<05467>

and Gomorrah
<06017>

and the neighbour
<07934>

[cities] thereof, saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

no man
<0376>

shall abide
<03427> (8799)

there, neither shall a son
<01121>

of man
<0120>

dwell
<01481> (8799)

in it.

49:19

Behold, he shall come up
<05927> (8799)

like a lion
<0738>

from the swelling
<01347>

of Jordan
<03383>

against the habitation
<05116>

of the strong
<0386>_:

but I will suddenly
<07280> (8686)

make him run away
<07323> (8686)

from her: and who [is] a chosen
<0977> (8803)

[man, that] I may appoint
<06485> (8799)

over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time
<03259> (8686)_?

and who [is] that shepherd
<07462> (8802)

that will stand
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

me? {appoint me...: or, convent me in judgment?}

49:20

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

the counsel
<06098>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that he hath taken
<03289> (8804)

against Edom
<0123>_;

and his purposes
<04284>_,

that he hath purposed
<02803> (8804)

against the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Teman
<08487>_:

Surely the least
<06810>

of the flock
<06629>

shall draw them out
<05498> (8799)_:

surely he shall make their habitations
<05116>

desolate
<08074> (8686)

with them.

49:21

The earth
<0776>

is moved
<07493> (8804)

at the noise
<06963>

of their fall
<05307> (8800)_,

at the cry
<06818>

the noise
<06963>

thereof was heard
<08085> (8738)

in the Red
<05488>

sea
<03220>_.

{Red sea: Heb. Weedy sea}

49:22

Behold, he shall come up
<05927> (8799)

and fly
<01675> (8799)

as the eagle
<05404>_,

and spread
<06566> (8799)

his wings
<03671>

over Bozrah
<01224>_:

and at that day
<03117>

shall the heart
<03820>

of the mighty men
<01368>

of Edom
<0123>

be as the heart
<03820>

of a woman
<0802>

in her pangs
<06887> (8688)_.

49:23

Concerning Damascus
<01834>_.

Hamath
<02574>

is confounded
<0954> (8804)_,

and Arpad
<0774>_:

for they have heard
<08085> (8804)

evil
<07451>

tidings
<08052>_:

they are fainthearted
<04127> (8738)_;

[there is] sorrow
<01674>

on the sea
<03220>_;

it cannot
<03201> (8799)

be quiet
<08252> (8687)_.

{fainthearted: Heb. melted} {on...: or, as on the sea}

49:24

Damascus
<01834>

is waxed feeble
<07503> (8804)_,

[and] turneth
<06437> (8689)

herself to flee
<05127> (8800)_,

and fear
<07374>

hath seized
<02388> (8689)

on [her]: anguish
<06869>

and sorrows
<02256>

have taken
<0270> (8804)

her, as a woman in travail
<03205> (8802)_.

49:25

How is the city
<05892>

of praise
<08416>

not left
<05800> (8795)_,

the city
<07151>

of my joy
<04885>_!

49:26

Therefore her young men
<0970>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

in her streets
<07339>_,

and all the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>

shall be cut off
<01826> (8735)

in that day
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

49:27

And I will kindle
<03341> (8689)

a fire
<0784>

in the wall
<02346>

of Damascus
<01834>_,

and it shall consume
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

of Benhadad
<01130>_.

49:28

Concerning Kedar
<06938>_,

and concerning the kingdoms
<04467>

of Hazor
<02674>_,

which Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

shall smite
<05221> (8689)_,

thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Arise
<06965> (8798)

ye, go up
<05927> (8798)

to Kedar
<06938>_,

and spoil
<07703> (8798)

the men
<01121>

of the east
<06924>_.

49:29

Their tents
<0168>

and their flocks
<06629>

shall they take away
<03947> (8799)_:

they shall take
<05375> (8799)

to themselves their curtains
<03407>_,

and all their vessels
<03627>_,

and their camels
<01581>_;

and they shall cry
<07121> (8804)

unto them, Fear
<04032>

[is] on every side
<05439>_.

49:30

Flee
<05127> (8798)_,

get
<05110> (8798)

you far off
<03966>_,

dwell
<03427> (8800)

deep
<06009> (8689)_,

O ye inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Hazor
<02674>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

for Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

hath taken counsel
<06098> <03289> (8804)

against you, and hath conceived
<02803> (8804)

a purpose
<04284>

against you. {get...: Heb. flit greatly}

49:31

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

get you up
<05927> (8798)

unto the wealthy
<07961>

nation
<01471>_,

that dwelleth
<03427> (8802)

without care
<0983>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

which have neither gates
<01817>

nor bars
<01280>_,

[which] dwell
<07931> (8799)

alone
<0910>_.

{wealthy: or, that is at ease}

49:32

And their camels
<01581>

shall be a booty
<0957>_,

and the multitude
<01995>

of their cattle
<04735>

a spoil
<07998>_:

and I will scatter
<02219> (8765)

into all winds
<07307>

them [that are] in the utmost
<07112> (8803)

corners
<06285>_;

and I will bring
<0935> (8686)

their calamity
<0343>

from all sides
<05676>

thereof, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{in...: Heb. cut off into corners, or, that have the corners of their hair polled}

49:33

And Hazor
<02674>

shall be a dwelling
<04583>

for dragons
<08577>_,

[and] a desolation
<08077>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_:

there shall no man
<0376>

abide
<03427> (8799)

there, nor [any] son
<01121>

of man
<0120>

dwell
<01481> (8799)

in it.

49:34

The word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

that came to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

against Elam
<05867>

in the beginning
<07225>

of the reign
<04438>

of Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

49:35

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_;

Behold, I will break
<07665> (8799)

the bow
<07198>

of Elam
<05867>_,

the chief
<07225>

of their might
<01369>_.

49:36

And upon Elam
<05867>

will I bring
<0935> (8689)

the four
<0702>

winds
<07307>

from the four
<0702>

quarters
<07098>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and will scatter
<02219> (8765)

them toward all those winds
<07307>_;

and there shall be no nation
<01471>

whither the outcasts
<05080> (8737)

of Elam
<05867> (8675) <05769>

shall not come
<0935> (8799)_.

49:37

For I will cause Elam
<05867>

to be dismayed
<02865> (8689)

before
<06440>

their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and before
<06440>

them that seek
<01245> (8764)

their life
<05315>_:

and I will bring
<0935> (8689)

evil
<07451>

upon them, [even] my fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

and I will send
<07971> (8765)

the sword
<02719>

after
<0310>

them, till I have consumed
<03615> (8763)

them:

49:38

And I will set
<07760> (8804)

my throne
<03678>

in Elam
<05867>_,

and will destroy
<06> (8689)

from thence the king
<04428>

and the princes
<08269>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

49:39

But it shall come to pass in the latter
<0319>

days
<03117>_,

[that] I will bring again
<07725> (8686) (8675) <07725> (8799)

the captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>

of Elam
<05867>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.
