Jeremiah 49:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ ‘You people in Heshbon, cry aloud,
because the enemy has destroyed Ai.
Weep, you people who live in Rabbah.
Dress yourselves in sackcloth, because you are so sad.
Run around inside the city.
The enemy will take away your idol of Molech.
They will take Molech's priests and their officers to a foreign land.
⁴ You people of Ammon boast about your power.
But that will soon come to an end!
You have not been faithful.
You have trusted in your riches and you say,
“Nobody will be able to attack us!” ’

‘I will bring terror all around you.^[a]
Your enemy will chase you away in all directions.
Nobody will be able to bring you together again.
