Concerning the Ammonites,
thus saith
the LORD;
Hath Israel
no sons?
hath he no heir?
why then doth their king
inherit
Gad,
and his people
dwell
in his cities?

Therefore, behold, the days
come,
saith
the LORD,
that I will cause an alarm
of war
to be heard
in Rabbah
of the Ammonites;
and it shall be a desolate
heap,
and her daughters
shall be burned
with fire:
then shall Israel
be heir
unto them that were his heirs,
saith
the LORD.

Wherefore gloriest
thou in the valleys,
thy flowing

O backsliding
daughter?
that trusted
in her treasures,
saying, Who shall come
unto me?
Behold, I will bring
a fear
upon thee, saith
the Lord
GOD
of hosts,
from all those that be about
thee; and ye shall be driven out
every man
right forth;
and none shall gather up
him that wandereth.

And afterward
I will bring again
the captivity
of the children
of Ammon,
saith
the LORD.
Concerning Edom,
thus saith
the LORD
of hosts;
Is wisdom
no more in Teman?
is counsel
perished
from the prudent?
is their wisdom
vanished?
Flee
ye, turn back,
dwell
deep,
O inhabitants
of Dedan;
for I will bring
the calamity
of Esau
upon him, the time
that I will visit
him.

the LORD;
Behold, they whose judgment
was not to drink
of the cup
have assuredly
drunken;
and art thou he that shall altogether
go unpunished?
thou shalt not go unpunished,
but thou shalt surely
drink
of it.
For I have sworn
by myself, saith
the LORD,
that Bozrah
shall become a desolation,
a reproach,
a waste,
and a curse;
and all the cities
thereof shall be perpetual
wastes.

For, lo, I will make
thee small
among the heathen,
and despised
among men.
Thy terribleness
hath deceived
thee, and the pride
of thine heart,
O thou that dwellest
in the clefts
of the rock,
that holdest
the height
of the hill:
though thou shouldest make thy nest
as high
as the eagle,
I will bring thee down
from thence, saith
the LORD.

Also Edom
shall be a desolation:
every one that goeth

As in the overthrow
of Sodom

and the neighbour
cities thereof, saith
the LORD,
no man

of man

Behold, he shall come up

and who is that shepherd

Therefore hear
the counsel
of the LORD,
that he hath taken
against Edom;
and his purposes,
that he hath purposed
against the inhabitants
of Teman:
Surely the least
of the flock
shall draw them out:
surely he shall make their habitations
desolate
with them.

Behold, he shall come up

and at that day

of Edom

of a woman

Concerning Damascus.
Hamath
is confounded,
and Arpad:
for they have heard
evil
tidings:
they are fainthearted;
there is sorrow
on the sea;
it cannot
be quiet.
Damascus
is waxed feeble,
and turneth
herself to flee,
and fear
hath seized
on her: anguish
and sorrows
have taken
her, as a woman in travail.
How is the city
of praise
not left,
the city
of my joy!
Therefore her young men
shall fall
in her streets,
and all the men
of war
shall be cut off
in that day,
saith
the LORD
of hosts.
And I will kindle
a fire
in the wall
of Damascus,
and it shall consume
the palaces
of Benhadad.
Concerning Kedar,
and concerning the kingdoms
of Hazor,
which Nebuchadrezzar
king
of Babylon
shall smite,
thus saith
the LORD;
Arise

and spoil
the men
of the east.

the LORD.

The word
of the LORD
that came to Jeremiah
the prophet
against Elam
in the beginning
of the reign
of Zedekiah
king
of Judah,
saying,
Thus saith
the LORD
of hosts;
Behold, I will break
the bow
of Elam,
the chief
of their might.
And upon Elam
will I bring
the four
winds
from the four
quarters
of heaven,
and will scatter
them toward all those winds;
and there shall be no nation
whither the outcasts
of Elam
shall not come.
For I will cause Elam
to be dismayed
before
their enemies,
and before
them that seek
their life:
and I will bring
evil
upon them, even my fierce
anger,
saith
the LORD;
and I will send
the sword
after
them, till I have consumed
them:
And I will set
my throne
in Elam,
and will destroy
from thence the king
and the princes,
saith
the LORD.
But it shall come to pass in the latter
days,
that I will bring again
the captivity
of Elam,
saith
the LORD.
