Judgment on Ammon

49Against the Ammonites. Thus says the LORD: "Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Milcom inherit Gad, And his people dwell in its cities?H1121H5983H559H3068H3478H1121H3423H4428H3423H1410H5971H3427H5892 2Therefore behold, the days are coming," says the LORD, "That I will cause to be heard an alarm of war In Rabbah of the Ammonites; It shall be a desolate mound, And her villages shall be burned with fire. Then Israel shall take possession of his inheritance," says the LORD.H3117H935H559H3068H8643H4421H8085H7237H1121H5983H8077H8510H1323H3341H784H3478H3423H3423H5002H3068 3"Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is plundered! Cry, you daughters of Rabbah, Gird yourselves with sackcloth! Lament and run to and fro by the walls; For Milcom shall go into captivity With his priests and his princes together.H3213H2809H5857H7703H6817H1323H7237H2296H8242H5594H7751H1448H4428H3212H1473H3548H8269H3162 4Why do you boast in the valleys, Your flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? Who trusted in her treasures, saying, 'Who will come against me?'H1984H6010H2100H6010H7728H1323H982H214H935 5Behold, I will bring fear upon you," Says the Lord GOD of hosts, "From all those who are around you; You shall be driven out, everyone headlong, And no one will gather those who wander off.H935H6343H5002H136H3069H6635H5439H5080H376H6440H6908H5074 6But afterward I will bring back The captives of the people of Ammon," says the LORD.H310H7725H7622H1121H5983H5002H3068

Judgment on Edom

7Against Edom. Thus says the LORD of hosts: "Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?H123H559H3068H6635H2451H8487H6098H6H995H2451H5628 8Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of Dedan! For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, The time that I will punish him.H5127H6437H3427H6009H3427H1719H935H343H6215H6256H6485 9If grape-gatherers came to you, Would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves by night, Would they not destroy until they have enough?H1219H935H7604H5955H1590H3915H7843H1767 10But I have made Esau bare; I have uncovered his secret places, And he shall not be able to hide himself. His descendants are plundered, His brethren and his neighbors, And he is no more.H6215H2834H1540H4565H3201H2247H2233H7703H251H7934 11Leave your fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; And let your widows trust in Me."H5800H3490H2421H490H982 12For thus says the LORD: "Behold, those whose judgment was not to drink of the cup have assuredly drunk. And are you the one who will altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink of it.H559H3068H4941H8354H3563H8354H8354H5352H5352H5352H8354H8354 13"For I have sworn by Myself," says the LORD, "that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse. And all its cities shall be perpetual wastes."H7650H5002H3068H1224H8047H2781H2721H7045H5892H5769H2723 14I have heard a message from the LORD, And an ambassador has been sent to the nations: "Gather together, come against her, And rise up to battle!H8085H8052H3068H6735H7971H1471H6908H935H6965H4421 15"For indeed, I will make you small among nations, Despised among men.H5414H6996H1471H959H120 16Your fierceness has deceived you, The pride of your heart, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, Who hold the height of the hill! Though you make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there," says the LORD.H8606H5377H2087H3820H7931H2288H5553H8610H4791H1389H7064H1361H5404H3381H5002H3068 17"Edom also shall be an astonishment; Everyone who goes by it will be astonished And will hiss at all its plagues.H123H8047H5674H8074H8319H4347 18As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah And their neighbors," says the LORD, "No one shall remain there, Nor shall a son of man dwell in it.H4114H5467H6017H7934H559H3068H376H3427H1121H120H1481 19"Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the floodplain of the Jordan Against the dwelling place of the strong; But I will suddenly make him run away from her. And who is a chosen man that I may appoint over her? For who is like Me? Who will arraign Me? And who is that shepherd Who will withstand Me?"H5927H738H1347H3383H5116H386H7280H7323H977H6485H3259H7462H5975H6440 20Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD that He has taken against Edom, And His purposes that He has proposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out; Surely He shall make their dwelling places desolate with them.H8085H6098H3068H3289H123H4284H2803H3427H8487H6810H6629H5498H5116H8074 21The earth shakes at the noise of their fall; At the cry its noise is heard at the Red Sea.H776H7493H6963H5307H6818H6963H8085H5488H3220 22Behold, He shall come up and fly like the eagle, And spread His wings over Bozrah; The heart of the mighty men of Edom in that day shall be Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.H5927H1675H5404H6566H3671H1224H3117H3820H1368H123H3820H802H6887

Judgment on Damascus

23Against Damascus. "Hamath and Arpad are shamed, For they have heard bad news. They are fainthearted; There is trouble on the sea; It cannot be quiet.H1834H2574H954H774H8085H7451H8052H4127H1674H3220H3201H8252 24Damascus has grown feeble; She turns to flee, And fear has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken her like a woman in labor.H1834H7503H6437H5127H7374H2388H6869H2256H270H3205 25Why is the city of praise not deserted, the city of My joy?H5892H8416H5800H7151H4885 26Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, And all the men of war shall be cut off in that day," says the LORD of hosts.H970H5307H7339H582H4421H1826H3117H5002H3068H6635 27"I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, And it shall consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad."H3341H784H2346H1834H398H759H1130

Judgment on Kedar and Hazor

28Against Kedar and against the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon shall strike. Thus says the LORD: "Arise, go up to Kedar, And devastate the men of the East!H6938H4467H2674H5019H4428H894H5221H559H3068H6965H5927H6938H7703H1121H6924 29Their tents and their flocks they shall take away. They shall take for themselves their curtains, All their vessels and their camels; And they shall cry out to them, 'Fear is on every side!'H168H6629H3947H5375H3407H3627H1581H7121H4032H5439 30"Flee, get far away! Dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of Hazor!" says the LORD. "For Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, And has conceived a plan against you.H5127H5110H3966H3427H6009H3427H2674H5002H3068H5019H4428H894H6098H3289H2803H4284 31"Arise, go up to the wealthy nation that dwells securely," says the LORD, "Which has neither gates nor bars, Dwelling alone.H6965H5927H7961H1471H3427H983H5002H3068H1817H1280H7931H910 32Their camels shall be for booty, And the multitude of their cattle for plunder. I will scatter to all winds those in the farthest corners, And I will bring their calamity from all its sides," says the LORD.H1581H957H1995H4735H7998H2219H7307H7112H6285H935H343H5676H5002H3068 33"Hazor shall be a dwelling for jackals, a desolation forever; No one shall reside there, Nor son of man dwell in it."H2674H4583H8577H8077H5704H5769H376H3427H1121H120H1481

Judgment on Elam

34The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,H1697H3068H3414H5030H5867H7225H4438H6667H4428H3063H559 35"Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, The foremost of their might.H559H3068H6635H7665H7198H5867H7225H1369 36Against Elam I will bring the four winds From the four quarters of heaven, And scatter them toward all those winds; There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go.H5867H935H702H7307H702H7098H8064H2219H7307H1471H5080H5867H5769H935 37For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies And before those who seek their life. I will bring disaster upon them, My fierce anger,' says the LORD; 'And I will send the sword after them Until I have consumed them.H5867H2865H6440H341H6440H1245H5315H935H7451H2740H639H5002H3068H7971H2719H310H3615 38I will set My throne in Elam, And will destroy from there the king and the princes,' says the LORD.H7760H3678H5867H6H4428H8269H5002H3068 39'But it shall come to pass in the latter days: I will bring back the captives of Elam,' says the LORD."H319H3117H7725H7725H7622H7622H5867H5002H3068
