Jeremiah 48:9-15
9PutH5414 saltH6731 on MoabH4124, forH3588 she will be laid wasteH5323H3318;1 her citiesH5892 will becomeH1961 desolateH8047, with no oneH369 to dwellH3427 in them.10CursedH779 is the one who is remissH7423 in doingH6213 the workH4399 of the LORDH3068, and cursed isH779 he who withholdsH4513 his swordH2719 from bloodshedH1818.
11MoabH4124 has been at easeH7599 from youthH5271,settledH8252H1931 like wineH413 on its dregsH8105;he has notH3808 been pouredH7324 from vesselH3627 toH413 vesselH3627or goneH1980 into exileH1473.SoH5921H3651 his flavorH2940 has remained the sameH5975,and his aromaH7381 is unchangedH3808H4171.12ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, the daysH3117 are comingH935,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,when I will sendH7971 to him wanderersH6808,who will pour him outH6808.They will emptyH7324 his vesselsH3627and shatterH5310 his jarsH5035.13Then MoabH4124 will be ashamedH954 of ChemoshH3645,just asH834 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 was ashamedH954when they trusted inH4009 BethelH1008.
14HowH349 can you sayH559, ‘WeH587 are warriorsH1368,mightyH2428 menH582 ready for battleH4421’?15MoabH4124 has been destroyedH7703and its townsH5892 have been invadedH5927;the bestH4005 of its young menH970have gone downH3381 in the slaughterH2874,declaresH5002 the KingH4428,whose nameH8034 is the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635.
