New Revised Standard Version Help
49Concerning the Ammonites. Thus says the LORD: Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then has Milcom dispossessed Gad, and his people settled in its towns?H1121H5983H559H3068H3478H1121H3423H4428H3423H1410H5971H3427H5892 2Therefore, the time is surely coming, says the LORD, when I will sound the battle alarm against Rabbah of the Ammonites; it shall become a desolate mound, and its villages shall be burned with fire; then Israel shall dispossess those who dispossessed him, says the LORD.H3117H935H559H3068H8643H4421H8085H7237H1121H5983H8077H8510H1323H3341H784H3478H3423H3423H5002H3068 3Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth, lament, and slash yourselves with whips! For Milcom shall go into exile, with his priests and his attendants.H3213H2809H5857H7703H6817H1323H7237H2296H8242H5594H7751H1448H4428H3212H1473H3548H8269H3162 4Why do you boast in your strength? Your strength is ebbing, O faithless daughter. You trusted in your treasures, saying, "Who will attack me?"H1984H6010H2100H6010H7728H1323H982H214H935 5I am going to bring terror upon you, says the Lord GOD of hosts, from all your neighbors, and you will be scattered, each headlong, with no one to gather the fugitives.H935H6343H5002H136H3069H6635H5439H5080H376H6440H6908H5074 6But afterward I will restore the fortunes of the Ammonites, says the LORD.H310H7725H7622H1121H5983H5002H3068 7Concerning Edom. Thus says the LORD of hosts: Is there no longer wisdom in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?H123H559H3068H6635H2451H8487H6098H6H995H2451H5628 8Flee, turn back, get down low, inhabitants of Dedan! For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time when I punish him.H5127H6437H3427H6009H3427H1719H935H343H6215H6256H6485 9If grape-gatherers came to you, would they not leave gleanings? If thieves came by night, even they would pillage only what they wanted.H1219H935H7604H5955H1590H3915H7843H1767 10But as for me, I have stripped Esau bare, I have uncovered his hiding places, and he is not able to conceal himself. His offspring are destroyed, his kinsfolk and his neighbors; and he is no more.H6215H2834H1540H4565H3201H2247H2233H7703H251H7934 11Leave your orphans, I will keep them alive; and let your widows trust in me.H5800H3490H2421H490H982 12For thus says the LORD: If those who do not deserve to drink the cup still have to drink it, shall you be the one to go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished; you must drink it.H559H3068H4941H8354H3563H8354H8354H5352H5352H5352H8354H8354 13For by myself I have sworn, says the LORD, that Bozrah shall become an object of horror and ridicule, a waste, and an object of cursing; and all her towns shall be perpetual wastes.H7650H5002H3068H1224H8047H2781H2721H7045H5892H5769H2723 14I have heard tidings from the LORD, and a messenger has been sent among the nations: "Gather yourselves together and come against her, and rise up for battle!"H8085H8052H3068H6735H7971H1471H6908H935H6965H4421 15For I will make you least among the nations, despised by humankind.H5414H6996H1471H959H120 16The terror you inspire and the pride of your heart have deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill. Although you make your nest as high as the eagle's, from there I will bring you down, says the LORD.H8606H5377H2087H3820H7931H2288H5553H8610H4791H1389H7064H1361H5404H3381H5002H3068 17Edom shall become an object of horror; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss because of all its disasters.H123H8047H5674H8074H8319H4347 18As when Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors were overthrown, says the LORD, no one shall live there, nor shall anyone settle in it.H4114H5467H6017H7934H559H3068H376H3427H1121H120H1481 19Like a lion coming up from the thickets of the Jordan against a perennial pasture, I will suddenly chase Edom away from it; and I will appoint over it whomever I choose. For who is like me? Who can summon me? Who is the shepherd who can stand before me?H5927H738H1347H3383H5116H386H7280H7323H977H6485H3259H7462H5975H6440 20Therefore hear the plan that the LORD has made against Edom and the purposes that he has formed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the little ones of the flock shall be dragged away; surely their fold shall be appalled at their fate.H8085H6098H3068H3289H123H4284H2803H3427H8487H6810H6629H5498H5116H8074 21At the sound of their fall the earth shall tremble; the sound of their cry shall be heard at the Red Sea.H776H7493H6963H5307H6818H6963H8085H5488H3220 22Look, he shall mount up and swoop down like an eagle, and spread his wings against Bozrah, and the heart of the warriors of Edom in that day shall be like the heart of a woman in labor.H5927H1675H5404H6566H3671H1224H3117H3820H1368H123H3820H802H6887 23Concerning Damascus. Hamath and Arpad are confounded, for they have heard bad news; they melt in fear, they are troubled like the sea that cannot be quiet.H1834H2574H954H774H8085H7451H8052H4127H1674H3220H3201H8252 24Damascus has become feeble, she turned to flee, and panic seized her; anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in labor.H1834H7503H6437H5127H7374H2388H6869H2256H270H3205 25How the famous city is forsaken, the joyful town!H5892H8416H5800H7151H4885 26Therefore her young men shall fall in her squares, and all her soldiers shall be destroyed in that day, says the LORD of hosts.H970H5307H7339H582H4421H1826H3117H5002H3068H6635 27And I will kindle a fire at the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-hadad.H3341H784H2346H1834H398H759H1130 28Concerning Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor that King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon defeated. Thus says the LORD: Rise up, advance against Kedar! Destroy the people of the east!H6938H4467H2674H5019H4428H894H5221H559H3068H6965H5927H6938H7703H1121H6924 29Take their tents and their flocks, their curtains and all their goods; carry off their camels for yourselves, and a cry shall go up: "Terror is all around!"H168H6629H3947H5375H3407H3627H1581H7121H4032H5439 30Flee, wander far away, hide in deep places, O inhabitants of Hazor! says the LORD. For King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon has made a plan against you and formed a purpose against you.H5127H5110H3966H3427H6009H3427H2674H5002H3068H5019H4428H894H6098H3289H2803H4284 31Rise up, advance against a nation at ease, that lives secure, says the LORD, that has no gates or bars, that lives alone.H6965H5927H7961H1471H3427H983H5002H3068H1817H1280H7931H910 32Their camels shall become booty, their herds of cattle a spoil. I will scatter to every wind those who have shaven temples, and I will bring calamity against them from every side, says the LORD.H1581H957H1995H4735H7998H2219H7307H7112H6285H935H343H5676H5002H3068 33Hazor shall become a lair of jackals, an everlasting waste; no one shall live there, nor shall anyone settle in it.H2674H4583H8577H8077H5704H5769H376H3427H1121H120H1481 34The word of the LORD that came to the prophet Jeremiah concerning Elam, at the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah.H1697H3068H3414H5030H5867H7225H4438H6667H4428H3063H559 35Thus says the LORD of hosts: I am going to break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might;H559H3068H6635H7665H7198H5867H7225H1369 36and I will bring upon Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven; and I will scatter them to all these winds, and there shall be no nation to which the exiles from Elam shall not come.H5867H935H702H7307H702H7098H8064H2219H7307H1471H5080H5867H5769H935 37I will terrify Elam before their enemies, and before those who seek their life; I will bring disaster upon them, my fierce anger, says the LORD. I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them;H5867H2865H6440H341H6440H1245H5315H935H7451H2740H639H5002H3068H7971H2719H310H3615 38and I will set my throne in Elam, and destroy their king and officials, says the LORD.H7760H3678H5867H6H4428H8269H5002H3068 39But in the latter days I will restore the fortunes of Elam, says the LORD.H319H3117H7725H7725H7622H7622H5867H5002H3068
