Jeremiah 49:1-26

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>_.
