Jeremiah 48:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ Moab is laid waste, and they have cast down her cities: and her choice young men are gone down to the slaughter: saith the king, whose name is the Lord of hosts.

¹⁶ The destruction of Moab is near to come: the calamity thereof shall come on exceeding swiftly.

¹⁷ Comfort him, all you that are round about him, and all you that know his name, say: How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod?
