Jeremiah 48:20-24, 31-34

Jeremiah 48:20-24 NCV

Moab is filled with shame, because she is ruined. Cry, Moab, cry out! Announce at the Arnon River that Moab is destroyed. People on the high plain have been punished. Judgment has come to these towns: Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath; Dibon, Nebo, and Beth Diblathaim; Kiriathaim, Beth Gamul, and Beth Meon; Kerioth and Bozrah. Judgment has come to all the towns of Moab, far and near.

Jeremiah 48:31-34 NCV

So I cry sadly for Moab, for everyone in Moab. I moan for the people from the town of Kir Hareseth. I cry with the people of the town of Jazer for you, the grapevines of the town of Sibmah. In the past your vines spread all the way to the sea, as far as the sea of Jazer. But the destroyer has taken over your fruit and grapes. Joy and happiness are gone from the large, rich fields of Moab. I have stopped the flow of wine from the winepresses. No one walks on the grapes with shouts of joy. There are shouts, but not shouts of joy. “Their crying can be heard from Moabite towns, from Heshbon to Elealeh and Jahaz. It can be heard from Zoar as far away as Horonaim and Eglath Shelishiyah. Even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.
