Jeremiah 48:9-15

9GiveH5414 12wingsH6731 to MoabH4124, For she will 3fleeH3318 awayH3318; And her citiesH5892 will becomeH1961 a 4desolationH8047, WithoutH369 inhabitantsH3427 in them.105CursedH779 is the one who doesH6213 the Lord’sH3068 workH4399 6negligentlyH7423, And cursedH779 is the one who restrainsH4513 his 7swordH2719 from bloodH1818.

11“MoabH4124 has beenH7599 8atH7599 easeH7599 sinceH4480 his youthH5271; He has also beenH8252 9peacefulH8252, like wine on 10its dregsH8105, And he has not been 11pouredH7385 from vesselH3627 to vesselH3627, NorH3808 has he goneH1980 into exileH1473. ThereforeH5921H3651 12he retainsH5975 his flavorH2940, And his aromaH7381 has not changedH4171. 12ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, the daysH3117 are comingH935,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “when I will sendH7971 to him those who tipH6808 vessels, and they will tipH6808 him overH6808, and they will pourH7385 outH7385 his vesselsH3627 and smashH5310 13his jarsH5035. 13And MoabH4124 will beH954 14ashamedH954 of 15ChemoshH3645, justH3512 asH3512 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 wasH954 ashamedH954 of 16BethelH1008, their confidenceH4009.14HowH349 can you sayH559, ‘We are 17warriorsH1368, And menH376 competentH2428 for battleH4421’?15MoabH4124 has been destroyedH7703 and 18men have goneH5927 upH5927 to 19his citiesH5892; His choicestH4005 2021youngH970 menH970 have also goneH3381 downH3381 to the slaughterH2874,” DeclaresH5002 the 22KingH4428, whose nameH8034 is the LordH3068 of armiesH6635.
