49CONCERNING {and} against the Ammonites: Thus says the Lord: Has Israel no sons [to return after their captivity and claim the territory of Gad east of the Jordan which the Ammonites have taken over]? Has [Israel's Gad] no heir? Why then has Milcom [the god the Ammonites call their king] dispossessed {and} inherited Gad, and [why do] his people dwell in Gad's cities?H1121H5983H559H3068H3478H1121H3423H4428H3423H1410H5971H3427H5892 2Therefore behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it [the high ground on which it stands] will become a desolate heap, and its daughter [villages] will be burned with fire. Then will Israel dispossess those who dispossessed him, says the Lord.H3117H935H559H3068H8643H4421H8085H7237H1121H5983H8077H8510H1323H3341H784H3478H3423H3423H5002H3068 3Wail, O Heshbon [in Moab, just south of Ammon], for Ai [in Ammon] is laid waste! Cry out, you daughter [villages] of Rabbah! Gird yourselves with sackcloth, lament, and run to and fro inside the [sheepfold] enclosures; for Milcom [the god-king] shall go into exile, together with his priests and his princes.H3213H2809H5857H7703H6817H1323H7237H2296H8242H5594H7751H1448H4428H3212H1473H3548H8269H3162 4Why do you boast of your valleys? Your valley flows away, O [Ammon] rebellious {and} faithless daughter, who trusted in her treasures, who said, Who can come against me?H1984H6010H2100H6010H7728H1323H982H214H935 5Behold, I will bring terror upon you, says the Lord, the Lord of hosts, from all who are round about you; and you will be driven out, each man fleeing straight before him [without thought of his neighbor], and there will be no one to gather together the fugitives.H935H6343H5002H136H3069H6635H5439H5080H376H6440H6908H5074 6And afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon {and} restore their fortunes, says the Lord.H310H7725H7622H1121H5983H5002H3068 7Concerning {and} against Edom: Thus says the Lord of hosts: Is there no longer wisdom in Teman [a district in Edom]? Has counsel vanished from the intelligent {and} prudent? Is their wisdom all poured out {and} used up?H123H559H3068H6635H2451H8487H6098H6H995H2451H5628 8Flee, turn back, dwell deep [in the deserts to escape the Chaldeans], O inhabitants of Dedan [neighbor of Edom]! For I will bring the calamity {and} destruction of Esau upon him [Edom] when I inspect {and} punish him.H5127H6437H3427H6009H3427H1719H935H343H6215H6256H6485 9If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some ungleaned grapes? If thieves came by night, would they not destroy only what is enough [for them]?H1219H935H7604H5955H1590H3915H7843H1767 10But I have stripped Esau (Edom) bare; I have uncovered his hiding places, and he cannot hide himself. His offspring will be destroyed, with his brethren and his neighbors; and he will be no more.H6215H2834H1540H4565H3201H2247H2233H7703H251H7934 11Leave your fatherless children; I will [do what is necessary to] preserve them alive. And let [those who have been made] your widows trust {and} confide in Me.H5800H3490H2421H490H982 12For thus says the Lord: Behold, they [Israel] whose rule was not to drink the cup [of wrath] shall assuredly drink--and are you to remain unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink.H559H3068H4941H8354H3563H8354H8354H5352H5352H5352H8354H8354 13For I have sworn by Myself, says the Lord, that Bozrah [in Edom, between Petra and the Dead Sea] shall become a horror, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all its cities shall be perpetual wastes.H7650H5002H3068H1224H8047H2781H2721H7045H5892H5769H2723 14I have heard a report from the Lord, and a messenger is sent to the nations, saying, Gather together and come against her! And rise up for the battle.H8085H8052H3068H6735H7971H1471H6908H935H6965H4421 15For, behold, I will make you [Edom] small among the nations and despised among men.H5414H6996H1471H959H120 16Your [object of] horror (your idol) has deceived you, and the pride of your heart [has deceived you], O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock [Sela or Petra], who hold {and} occupy the height of the hill. Though you make your nest as high as the eagle's, I will bring you down from there, says the Lord.H8606H5377H2087H3820H7931H2288H5553H8610H4791H1389H7064H1361H5404H3381H5002H3068 17And Edom shall be an astonishment {and} a horror; everyone who goes by it shall be astonished {and} shall hiss with horror at all its plagues {and} disasters.H123H8047H5674H8074H8319H4347 18As [it was] in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring cities, says the Lord, no man shall dwell there; neither shall a son of man live in it temporarily.H4114H5467H6017H7934H559H3068H376H3427H1121H120H1481 19See, there comes up one [Nebuchadnezzar] like a lion from [lurking in] the jungles (the pride) of the Jordan against the strong habitation [of Edom] {and} into the permanent pastures; for in a twinkling I will drive him [Edom] from there. And I will appoint over him the one whom I choose. For who is like Me? And who will appoint for Me the time {and} prosecute Me for this proceeding? And what [earthly, national] shepherd can stand before Me {and} defy Me?H5927H738H1347H3383H5116H386H7280H7323H977H6485H3259H7462H5975H6440 20Therefore hear the plan of the Lord which He has made against Edom, and His purposes which He has formed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall be dragged away [by Nebuchadnezzar], even the little ones of the flock; surely He shall make their habitation desolate because of them {and} their fold shocked at their fate.H8085H6098H3068H3289H123H4284H2803H3427H8487H6810H6629H5498H5116H8074 21At the sound of their fall the earth shall tremble; at their crying the sound shall be heard at the Red Sea.H776H7493H6963H5307H6818H6963H8085H5488H3220 22Behold, one will come up and fly swiftly like an eagle and spread his wings against [the Edomite city of] Bozrah; and in that day the hearts of the mighty warriors of Edom will be like the heart of a woman in her pangs [in childbirth].H5927H1675H5404H6566H3671H1224H3117H3820H1368H123H3820H802H6887 23Concerning {and} against Damascus [in Syria]: Hamath and Arpad are confounded {and} put to shame, for they have heard bad news; they are fainthearted {and} wasting away; there is trouble {and} anxiety [like] on a [storm-tossed] sea which cannot rest.H1834H2574H954H774H8085H7451H8052H4127H1674H3220H3201H8252 24Damascus has become feeble; she has turned to flee, and terror {and} panic have seized her; anguish and sorrow have taken hold of her, like a woman in childbirth.H1834H7503H6437H5127H7374H2388H6869H2256H270H3205 25How [remarkable that] the renowned city is not deserted, the city of my joy! [exclaims one from Damascus].H5892H8416H5800H7151H4885 26Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all her soldiers shall be destroyed in that day, says the Lord of hosts.H970H5307H7339H582H4421H1826H3117H5002H3068H6635 27And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will consume the palaces of Ben-hadad [title of several kings of Syria].H3341H784H2346H1834H398H759H1130 28Concerning Kedar [a tribe of nomad Arabs] and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon shall smite: Thus says the Lord [to him]: Arise, go up against Kedar and destroy the sons of the east.H6938H4467H2674H5019H4428H894H5221H559H3068H6965H5927H6938H7703H1121H6924 29Their tents and their flocks shall they [the Chaldeans] take--their tent hangings and all their utensils and their camels. And men shall cry to them, Terror on every side!H168H6629H3947H5375H3407H3627H1581H7121H4032H5439 30Flee, wander far off, dwell deep [in the deserts], O you inhabitants of Hazor [in the Arabian Desert] says the Lord, for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon has planned a course against you and has conceived a purpose against you.H5127H5110H3966H3427H6009H3427H2674H5002H3068H5019H4428H894H6098H3289H2803H4284 31Arise [Nebuchadrezzar], get up into a nation which is at ease, which dwells without care, says the Lord, [a nation] which has neither gates nor bars, which dwells apart {and} alone.H6965H5927H7961H1471H3427H983H5002H3068H1817H1280H7931H910 32And their camels will be booty, and their herds of cattle a spoil; and I will scatter to all [the four] winds those who [as evidence of their idolatry] clip off the corners of their hair, and I will bring their calamity from every side, says the Lord.H1581H957H1995H4735H7998H2219H7307H7112H6285H935H343H5676H5002H3068 33And Hazor shall become a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever; no man shall dwell there; neither shall a son of man live in it temporarily.H2674H4583H8577H8077H5704H5769H376H3427H1121H120H1481 34The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning {and} against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,H1697H3068H3414H5030H5867H7225H4438H6667H4428H3063H559 35Thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief [weapon and part] of their strength.H559H3068H6635H7665H7198H5867H7225H1369 36And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four corners of heaven; and I will scatter them toward all those winds, and there will be no nation to which the outcasts of Elam will not come.H5867H935H702H7307H702H7098H8064H2219H7307H1471H5080H5867H5769H935 37And I will cause Elam to be dismayed {and} terrified before their enemies and before those who seek {and} demand their lives; and I will bring evil {and} disaster upon them, even My fierce anger, says the Lord. And I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them.H5867H2865H6440H341H6440H1245H5315H935H7451H2740H639H5002H3068H7971H2719H310H3615 38And I will set My throne [of judgment] in Elam [whose capital city was Shushan, from which God wrought wonders through Nehemiah, Esther, and Daniel]; and I will destroy from their king and princes, says the Lord.H7760H3678H5867H6H4428H8269H5002H3068 39But it shall be in the latter days (the end of days) that I will reverse the captivity and restore the fortunes of Elam, says the Lord.H319H3117H7725H7725H7622H7622H5867H5002H3068
