Jeremiah, Chapter 49, verses 1-6

¹ Concerning the sons of Ammon. Thus says the LORD:
“Does Israel have no sons?
Or has he no heirs?
Why then has^aMalcam taken possession of Gad
And his people settled in its cities?
² “Therefore behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD,
“That I will cause a^btrumpet blast of war to be heard
Against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon;
And it will become a desolate heap,
And her towns will be set on fire.
Then Israel will take possession of his possessors,”
Says the LORD.
³ “Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai has been destroyed!
Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah,
Gird yourselves with sackcloth and lament,
And rush back and forth inside the walls;
For^cMalcam will go into exile
Together with his priests and his princes.
⁴ “How boastful you are about the valleys!
Your valley is flowing away,
O backsliding daughter
Who trusts in her treasures, saying,
‘Who will come against me?’
⁵ “Behold, I am going to bring terror upon you,”
Declares the Lord^dGOD of hosts,
“From all directions around you;
And each of you will be driven out^eheadlong,
With no one to gather the fugitives together.
⁶ “But afterward I will restore
The^ffortunes of the sons of Ammon,”
Declares the LORD.
