Jeremiah 49:2-4
Lexham English Bible
2 Therefore[a] look, days are coming,” declares[b] Yahweh,
“and I will sound against Rabbah, the Ammonites,[c]
the alarm of the war,
and it will become as a mound of desolation,
and its daughters will burn in the fire.
Then Israel will dispossess his dispossessors,” says Yahweh.
3 “Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is devastated.
Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah, put on sackcloth.
Lament and run back and forth among the walls.
For Milcom will go into exile,
his priests and his officials together.
4 Why do you boast in your valleys?
Your valleys[d] are ebbing.
O unfaithful daughter, who trusted in her treasures,
who said, ‘Who will come against me?’
