Jeremiah 49:3-5
New King James Version
Jeremiah 49:3-5
New King James Version
3 “Wail, O (A)Heshbon, for Ai is plundered!
Cry, you daughters of Rabbah,
(B)Gird yourselves with sackcloth!
Lament and run to and fro by the walls;
For [a]Milcom shall go into captivity
With his (C)priests and his princes together.
4 Why (D)do you boast in the valleys,
[b]Your flowing valley, O (E)backsliding daughter?
Who trusted in her (F)treasures, (G)saying,
‘Who will come against me?’
5 Behold, I will bring fear upon you,”
Says the Lord God of hosts,
“From all those who are around you;
You shall be driven out, everyone headlong,
And no one will gather those who wander off.

New International Version
Jeremiah 49:3-5
New International Version
3 “Wail, Heshbon,(A) for Ai(B) is destroyed!
Cry out, you inhabitants of Rabbah!
Put on sackcloth(C) and mourn;
rush here and there inside the walls,
for Molek(D) will go into exile,(E)
together with his priests and officials.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys,
boast of your valleys so fruitful?
Unfaithful Daughter Ammon,(F)
you trust in your riches(G) and say,
‘Who will attack me?’(H)
5 I will bring terror on you
from all those around you,”
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.
“Every one of you will be driven away,
and no one will gather the fugitives.(I)
