Jeremiah 48:26-28
International Standard Version
Jeremiah 48:26-28
International Standard Version
26 “Make him drunk for he has exalted himself
against the Lord.
Moab will wallow in his vomit,
and he will be the object of mocking.
27 Wasn’t Israel an object of mocking for you?
Wasn’t he treated like a thief,[a]
so that whenever you spoke about him
you shook your head in contempt?[b]
28 Abandon the cities, and live on the cliffs,[c]
you inhabitants of Moab.
Be like a dove that builds a nest
by the mouth of a cave.
