# Jeremiah 49 (New King James Version)
|
|
Judgment on Ammon
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 49
|
|
###### 1 Against 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?
|
|
|
|
###### 2 Therefore 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Why do you boast in the valleys,
|
|
Your flowing valley, O backsliding daughter?
|
|
Who trusted in her treasures, _saying,_
|
|
'Who will come against me?'
|
|
|
|
###### 5 Behold, 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 But afterward I will bring back
|
|
The captives of the people of Ammon," says the Lord.Judgment on Edom
|
|
|
|
###### 7 Against Edom.
|
|
Thus says the Lord of hosts:
|
|
"_Is_ wisdom no more in Teman?
|
|
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
|
|
Has their wisdom vanished?
|
|
|
|
###### 8 Flee, 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 If grape-gatherers came to you,
|
|
Would they not leave _some_ gleaning grapes?
|
|
If thieves by night,
|
|
Would they not destroy until they have enough?
|
|
|
|
###### 10 But 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 Leave your fatherless children,
|
|
I will preserve _them_ alive;
|
|
And let your widows trust in Me."
|
|
|
|
###### 12 For 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._
|
|
###### 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."
|
|
|
|
###### 14 I 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!
|
|
|
|
###### 15 "For indeed, I will make you small among nations,
|
|
Despised among men.
|
|
|
|
###### 16 Your 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 17 "Edom also shall be an astonishment;
|
|
Everyone who goes by it will be astonished
|
|
And will hiss at all its plagues.
|
|
|
|
###### 18 As 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 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?"
|
|
|
|
###### 20 Therefore 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 21 The earth shakes at the noise of their fall;
|
|
At the cry its noise is heard at the Red Sea.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 Behold, 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.Judgment on Damascus
|
|
|
|
###### 23 Against 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 Damascus has grown feeble;
|
|
She turns to flee,
|
|
And fear has seized _her._
|
|
Anguish and sorrows have taken her like a woman in labor.
|
|
|
|
###### 25 Why is the city of praise not deserted, the city of My joy?
|
|
|
|
###### 26 Therefore 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 27 "I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus,
|
|
And it shall consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad."Judgment on Kedar and Hazor
|
|
|
|
###### 28 Against 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!
|
|
|
|
###### 29 Their 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!'
|
|
|
|
###### 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 31 "Arise, go up to the wealthy nation that dwells securely," says the Lord,
|
|
"Which has neither gates nor bars,
|
|
Dwelling alone.
|
|
|
|
###### 32 Their 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 33 "Hazor shall be a dwelling for jackals, a desolation forever;
|
|
No one shall reside there,
|
|
Nor son of man dwell in it."Judgment on Elam
|
|
|
|
###### 34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
|
|
###### 35 "Thus says the Lord of hosts:
|
|
'Behold, I will break the bow of Elam,
|
|
The foremost of their might.
|
|
|
|
###### 36 Against 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 37 For 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.
|
|
|
|
###### 38 I will set My throne in Elam,
|
|
And will destroy from there the king and the princes,' says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
###### 39 'But it shall come to pass in the latter days:
|
|
I will bring back the captives of Elam,' says the Lord."
