Jeremiah 49:1
|
|
Of the children of Ammon. Thus saith Jehovah:
Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why then doth Malcam possess Gad, and his
people well in the cities thereof? |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:2 |
|
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah,
that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of
Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned
with fire: then shall Israel possess them that did possess him, saith Jehovah.
|
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:3 |
|
Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste; cry,
ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth: lament, and run to and fro among
the fences; for Malcam shall go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
|
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:4 |
|
Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys, thy
flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? that trusted in her treasures, saying,
Who shall come unto me? |
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:5 |
|
Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith
the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, from all that are round about thee; and ye shall be
driven out every man right forth, and there shall be none to gather together the
fugitives. |
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:6 |
|
But afterward I will bring back the captivity
of the children of Ammon, saith Jehovah. |
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:7 |
|
Of Edom. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Is wisdom
no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished?
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:8 |
|
Flee ye, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants
of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I shall
visit him. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:9 |
|
If grape-gatherers came to thee, would they
not leave some gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, would they not destroy till
they had enough? |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:10 |
|
But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered
his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is destroyed,
and his brethren, and his neighbors; and he is not. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:11 |
|
Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve
them alive; and let thy widows trust in me. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:12 |
|
For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, they to whom
it pertained not to drink of the cup shall assuredly drink; and art thou he that
shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely
drink. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:13 |
|
For I have sworn by myself, saith Jehovah, that
Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all
the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:14 |
|
I have heard tidings from Jehovah, and an ambassador
is sent among the nations, saying, Gather yourselves together, and come against
her, and rise up to the battle. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:15 |
|
For, behold, I have made thee small among the
nations, and despised among men. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:16 |
|
As for thy terribleness, the pride of thy heart
hath deceived thee, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest
the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle,
I will bring thee down from thence, saith Jehovah. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:17 |
|
And Edom shall become an astonishment: every
one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues
thereof. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:18 |
|
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and
the neighbor cities thereof, saith Jehovah, no man shall dwell there, neither
shall any son of man sojourn therein. |
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:19 |
|
Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the
pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them
run away from it; and whoso is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is
like me? and who will appoint me a time? and who is the shepherd that will stand
before me? |
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:20 |
|
Therefore hear ye the counsel of Jehovah, that
he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the
inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall drag them away, even the little ones of
the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate over them. |
| |
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:21 |
|
The earth trembleth at the noise of their fall;
there is a cry, the noise whereof is heard in the Red Sea. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:22 |
|
Behold, he shall come up and fly as the eagle,
and spread out his wings against Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom
at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:23 |
|
Of Damascus. Hamath is confounded, and Arpad;
for they have heard evil tidings, they are melted away: there is sorrow on the
sea; it cannot be quiet. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:24 |
|
Damascus is waxed feeble, she turneth herself
to flee, and trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold
of her, as of a woman in travail. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:25 |
|
How is the city of praise not forsaken, the
city of my joy? |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:26 |
|
Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets,
and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day, saith Jehovah
of hosts. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:27 |
|
And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus,
and it shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:28 |
|
Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote. Thus saith Jehovah: Arise ye, go up to Kedar,
and destroy the children of the east. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:29 |
|
Their tents and their flocks shall they take;
they shall carry away for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and
their camels; and they shall cry unto them, Terror on every side! |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:30 |
|
Flee ye, wander far off, dwell in the depths,
O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Jehovah; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath
taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:31 |
|
Arise, get you up unto a nation that is at ease,
that dwelleth without care, saith Jehovah; that have neither gates nor bars, that
dwell alone. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:32 |
|
And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude
of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter unto all winds them that have the
corners of their hair cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side
of them, saith Jehovah. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:33 |
|
And Hazor shall be a dwelling-place of jackals,
a desolation for ever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man
sojourn therein. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:34 |
|
The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the
prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah,
saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:35 |
|
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will
break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:36 |
|
And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from
the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and
there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:37 |
|
And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before
their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon
them, even my fierce anger, saith Jehovah; and I will send the sword after them,
till I have consumed them; |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:38 |
|
and I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy
from thence king and princes, saith Jehovah. |
|
|
|
|
| Jeremiah 49:39 |
|
But it shall come to pass in the latter days,
that I will bring back the captivity of Elam, saith Jehovah. |
