Jeremiah 49:2-4
GOD’S WORD Translation
2 That is why the days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will sound the battle cry against Rabbah,
where the people of Ammon live.
It will become a pile of rubble.
Its villages will be burned down.
Then Israel will take possession of its inheritance, says the Lord.
3 Cry loudly, Heshbon, because Ai is destroyed.
Cry, people of Rabbah, put on your sackcloth, and mourn.
Run back and forth between the walls.
Milcom will be taken away into captivity
with its priests and officials.
4 Why do you brag about your valleys,
your fertile valleys, you unfaithful people?
You trust your treasures.
You think, “Who would attack me?”
Jeremiah 49:2-4
New International Version
2 But the days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will sound the battle cry(A)
against Rabbah(B) of the Ammonites;
it will become a mound of ruins,(C)
and its surrounding villages will be set on fire.
Then Israel will drive out
those who drove her out,(D)”
says the Lord.
3 “Wail, Heshbon,(E) for Ai(F) is destroyed!
Cry out, you inhabitants of Rabbah!
Put on sackcloth(G) and mourn;
rush here and there inside the walls,
for Molek(H) will go into exile,(I)
together with his priests and officials.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys,
boast of your valleys so fruitful?
Unfaithful Daughter Ammon,(J)
you trust in your riches(K) and say,
‘Who will attack me?’(L)
