Jeremiah 48:26-28
International Children’s Bible
26 “The people of Moab thought they were greater than the Lord.
So punish Moab until they act as if they are drunk.
Moab will fall and roll around in their own vomit.
People will make fun of them.
27 Moab, you made fun of Israel.
Israel was caught in the middle of a gang of thieves.
You often spoke about Israel.
And you shook your head and acted as if you were better than Israel.
28 People in Moab, leave your towns empty.
Go live among the rocks.
Be like a dove that makes its nest
at the entrance of a cave!

26 “Make her drunk,(A)
for she has defied(B) the Lord.
Let Moab wallow in her vomit;(C)
let her be an object of ridicule.(D)
27 Was not Israel the object of your ridicule?(E)
Was she caught among thieves,(F)
that you shake your head(G) in scorn(H)
whenever you speak of her?
28 Abandon your towns and dwell among the rocks,
you who live in Moab.
Be like a dove(I) that makes its nest
at the mouth of a cave.(J)
