[does] an heir not [belongs] to it why? has he dispossessed Milcom Gad and people his in cities its has it dwelt? 2 Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will sound aloud against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon a shout of battle and it will become a mound of desolation and daughters its with fire they will be kindled and it will dispossess Israel [those who] dispossessed it he says Yahweh. 3 Wail O Heshbon for it has been devastated Ai cry out O daughters of Rabbah gird yourselves sackcloth mourn and run to and fro among the walls for Milcom in exile he will go priests his and officials his together. 4 Why? do you boast in the valleys [is] flowing valley your O daughter apostate who trusts in treasures her who? will he come against me. 5 Here I [am] about to bring on you terror [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts from all around you and you will be driven away everyone before it and not [one who] gathers together [belongs] to the fugitive. 6 And after thus I will turn back [the] captivity of [the] people of Ammon [the] utterance of Yahweh. 7 Of Edom thus he says Yahweh of hosts ¿ [is] there not still wisdom in Teman has it been lost? counsel from understanding [people] has it been corrupted? wisdom their. 8 Flee be turned back make deep to dwell O inhabitants of Dedan for [the] disaster of Esau I will bring on it a time [when] I will visit it. 9 If grape gatherers they came to you not will they leave? gleanings if thieves in the night they destroyed sufficiency their. 10 For I I will strip bare Esau I will uncover hiding places its and it will hide itself not it will be able it will be devastated offspring its and relatives its and neighbors its and there not [will be] it. 11 Leave! fatherless your I I will preserve [them] alive and widows your on me let them rely. 12 For thus - he says Yahweh there! [those] who not sentence their [was] to drink the cup completely they will drink [it] and you he completely will you be exempt from punishment? not you will be exempt from punishment for certainly you will drink [it]. 13 For by myself I swear [the] utterance of Yahweh that a waste a reproach a desolation and a curse it will become Bozrah and all cities its they will become ruins of perpetuity. 14 A report I have heard from with Yahweh and an envoy among the nations [has been] sent gather together and come on it and rise up for battle. 15 For here! small I will make you among the nations despised among humankind. 16 Horror your it has deceived you [the] arrogance of heart your O dweller in [the] clefts of the rock O occupant of [the] height[s] of a hill for you will make high like eagle nest your from there I will bring down you [the] utterance of Yahweh. 17 And it will become Edom a horror every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he may hiss on all wounds its. 18 Like [the] overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and neighbors its he says Yahweh not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind. 19 There! like a lion [which] it goes up from [the] thicket[s] of the Jordan to pastureland of an ever-flowing [stream] for I will act in a moment I will cause to run it from on it and whoever [is] chosen to it I will appoint for who? [is] like me and who? will he summon me and who? this [is] a shepherd who he will stand before me. 20 Therefore hear [the] plan of Yahweh which he has planned against Edom and purposes his which he has purposed against [the] inhabitants of Teman if not people will drag away them [the] young [ones] of the flock if not he will devastate on them pastureland their. 21 From [the] sound of falling they it will shake the earth of [the] calling out at [the] sea of reed[s] it will be heard sound its. 22 There! like eagle someone will ascend and he may swoop down so he may spread out wings his over Bozrah and it will be [the] heart of [the] warriors of Edom on the day that like [the] heart of a woman in labor. 23 Of Damascus it will be ashamed Hamath and Arpad for new[s] bad they have heard they will melt away [is] in the sea anxiety to be quiet not it will be able. 24 It will be disheartened Damascus it will turn back to flee and panic - it will take hold distress and pains it will seize it like [woman] giving birth. 25 How! not it has been forsaken a city of (praise *Qk) [the] town of joy my. 26 Therefore they will fall young men its in open places its and all [the] men of war they will be silenced in the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts. 27 And I will kindle a fire at [the] wall of Damascus and it will consume [the] fortresses of Ben Hadad. 28 Of Kedar - and of [the] kingdoms of Hazor which he attacked (Nebuchadnezzar *QK) [the] king of Babylon thus he says Yahweh arise go up against Kedar and devastate [the] people of [the] east. 29 Tents their and flock[s] their people will take away tent curtains their and all equipment their and camels their they will carry off for themselves and people will call out to them terror [is] from round about. 30 Flee take flight exceedingly make deep to dwell O inhabitants of Hazor [the] utterance of Yahweh that he has planned on you Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon a plan and he has purposed (on you *QK) a purpose. 31 Arise go up against a nation at ease [which] dwells to security [the] utterance of Yahweh not a pair of gates and not a bar [belong] to it alone they dwell. 32 And they will become camels their spoil and [the] abundance of livestock their plunder and I will scatter them to every wind [those who] are cut off of [the] corner and from all sides its I will bring disaster their [the] utterance of Yahweh. 33 And it will become Hazor a habitation of jackals a desolation until perpetuity not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind. 34 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam at [the] beginning of [the] reign of Zedekiah [the] king of Judah saying. 35 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to break [the] bow of Elam [the] beginning of strength their. 36 And I will bring against Elam four winds from [the] four [the] ends of the heavens and I will scatter them to all the winds these and not it will be the nation where not it will go there [the] outcasts of (Elam. *QK) 37 And I will shatter Elam before enemies their and before - [those who] seek life their and I will bring on them - calamity [the] burning of anger my [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will send after them the sword until have made an end of I them. 38 And I will set throne my in Elam and I will destroy from there king and officials [the] utterance of Yahweh. 39 And it will be - at [the] end of the days (I will turn back *Qk) ([the] captivity of *Qk) Elam [the] utterance of Yahweh.
