Jeremiah 48:7-9
Authorized (King James) Version
7 For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures,
thou shalt also be taken:
and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity
with his priests and his princes together.
8 And the spoiler shall come upon every city,
and no city shall escape:
the valley also shall perish,
and the plain shall be destroyed,
as the Lord hath spoken.
9 Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away:
for the cities thereof shall be desolate,
without any to dwell therein.
Jeremiah 48:7-9
New International Version
7 Since you trust in your deeds and riches,(A)
you too will be taken captive,
and Chemosh(B) will go into exile,(C)
together with his priests and officials.(D)
8 The destroyer(E) will come against every town,
and not a town will escape.
The valley will be ruined
and the plateau(F) destroyed,
because the Lord has spoken.
9 Put salt(G) on Moab,
for she will be laid waste[a];(H)
her towns will become desolate,
with no one to live in them.
