Jeremiah 49:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 “Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is devastated.
Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah, put on sackcloth.
Lament and run back and forth among the walls.
For Milcom will go into exile,
his priests and his officials together.
4 Why do you boast in your valleys?
Your valleys[a] are ebbing.
O unfaithful daughter, who trusted in her treasures,
who said, ‘Who will come against me?’
5 Look, I am going to bring dread on you,”
declares[b] Lord Yahweh of hosts,
“from all your surrounding neighbors.
And you will be scattered,
each one before it,[c]
and there is no one who gathers the fugitives.[d]
