Jeremiah 48:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 For at the going up of [a]Luhith, the mourner shall go up with weeping: for in the going down of Horonaim, the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
6 Flee and save your lives, and be like unto the [b]heath in the wilderness.
7 For because thou hast trusted in thy [c]works and in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken, and [d]Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his Priests and his Princes together.
