Jeremiah 48:4-10 God's Word Translation (GW)

4. Moab will be broken.Its little ones will cry out.

5. People go up the pass of Luhith, crying bitterly as they go.On the road down to Horonaim they have heardthe distressful cry of destruction.

6. “Run away! Run for your lives!Run like a wild donkey in the desert.”

7. Since you trust the things you do and your treasures,you will be captured.Chemosh will go into captivity with all its priests and officials.

8. The destroyer will come to every city, and no city will escape.The valley will be destroyed, and the plain will be laid wasteas the Lord has threatened.

9. Put salt on Moab.It will be destroyed.Its cities will become deserted ruins.

10. Cursed are those who neglect doing the Lord’s work.Cursed are those who keep their swords from killing.
