Jeremiah 49:2-4
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
2 Therefore behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it [the high ground on which it stands] will become a desolate heap, and its daughter [villages] will be burned with fire. Then will Israel dispossess those who dispossessed him, says the Lord.(A)
3 Wail, O Heshbon [in Moab, just south of Ammon], for Ai [in Ammon] is laid waste! Cry out, you daughter [villages] of Rabbah! Gird yourselves with sackcloth, lament, and run to and fro inside the [sheepfold] enclosures; for Milcom [the god-king] shall go into exile, together with his priests and his princes.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys? Your valley flows away, O [Ammon] rebellious and faithless daughter, who trusted in her treasures, who said, Who can come against me?

Jeremiah 49:2-4
New International Version
2 But the days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will sound the battle cry(A)
against Rabbah(B) of the Ammonites;
it will become a mound of ruins,(C)
and its surrounding villages will be set on fire.
Then Israel will drive out
those who drove her out,(D)”
says the Lord.
3 “Wail, Heshbon,(E) for Ai(F) is destroyed!
Cry out, you inhabitants of Rabbah!
Put on sackcloth(G) and mourn;
rush here and there inside the walls,
for Molek(H) will go into exile,(I)
together with his priests and officials.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys,
boast of your valleys so fruitful?
Unfaithful Daughter Ammon,(J)
you trust in your riches(K) and say,
‘Who will attack me?’(L)
