Jeremiah 48:6-8
Easy-to-Read Version
6 Run away! Run for your lives!
Run away like a weed[a] blowing through the desert.
7 “You trust in the things you made and in your wealth,
so you will be captured.
The god Chemosh will be taken into captivity,
and his priests and officials will be taken with him.
8 The Destroyer will come against every town.
Not one town will escape.
The valley will be ruined.
The high plain will be destroyed.
The Lord said this would happen,
so it will happen.
