Jeremiah Chapter 46

1 The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the 
Gentiles;

2 Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which 
was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of 
Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of 
Judah.

3 Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.

4 Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your 
helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines.

5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their 
mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for 
fear was round about, saith the LORD.

6 Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall 
stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.

7 Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the 
rivers?

8 Egypt riseth up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the 
rivers; and he saith, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will 
destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.

9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come 
forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the 
Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.

10 For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, 
that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, 
and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord 
GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in 
vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.

12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the 
land: for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, and they are 
fallen both together.

13 The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how 
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.

14 Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and 
in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall 
devour round about thee.

15 Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because the LORD 
did drive them.

16 He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, 
Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our 
nativity, from the oppressing sword.

17 They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath 
passed the time appointed.

18 As I live, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, Surely as 
Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.

19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into 
captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.

20 Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh 
out of the north.

21 Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for 
they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not 
stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the 
time of their visitation.

22 The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with 
an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.

23 They shall cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be 
searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.

24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered 
into the hand of the people of the north.

25 The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish 
the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their 
kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:

26 And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, 
and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand 
of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of 
old, saith the LORD.

27 But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: 
for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land 
of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, 
and none shall make him afraid.

28 Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with 
thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have 
driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in 
measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.

Jeremiah Chapter 47

1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the 
Philistines, before that Pharaoh smote Gaza.

2 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and 
shall be an overflowing flood, and shall overflow the land, and all that 
is therein; the city, and them that dwell therein: then the men shall 
cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.

3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong horses, at the 
rushing of his chariots, and at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers 
shall not look back to their children for feebleness of hands;

4 Because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, and to 
cut off from Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the LORD 
will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor.

5 Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of 
their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?

6 O thou sword of the LORD, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? put 
up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.

7 How can it be quiet, seeing the LORD hath given it a charge against 
Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it.

Jeremiah Chapter 48

1 Against Moab thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto 
Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is 
confounded and dismayed.

2 There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised 
evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also 
thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.

3 A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.

4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

5 For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in 
the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.

6 Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.

7 For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou 
shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his 
priests and his princes together.

8 And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: 
the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the 
LORD hath spoken.

9 Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities 
thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.

10 Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed 
be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.

11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his 
lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he 
gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent 
is not changed.

12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will send 
unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his 
vessels, and break their bottles.

13 And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was 
ashamed of Bethel their confidence.

14 How say ye, We are mighty and strong men for the war?

15 Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young 
men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the 
LORD of hosts.

16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.

17 All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, 
say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!

18 Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and 
sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he 
shall destroy thy strong holds.

19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that 
fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?

20 Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it 
in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,

21 And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon 
Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,

22 And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Bethdiblathaim,

23 And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Bethgamul, and upon Bethmeon,

24 And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the 
land of Moab, far or near.

25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD.

26 Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab 
also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.

27 For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? 
for since thou spakest of him, thou skippedst for joy.

28 O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and 
be like the dove that maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.

29 We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his 
loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his 
heart.

30 I know his wrath, saith the LORD; but it shall not be so; his lies 
shall not so effect it.

31 Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine 
heart shall mourn for the men of Kirheres.

32 O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy 
plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the 
spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

33 And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the 
land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none 
shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.

34 From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have 
they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as an heifer of 
three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.

35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that 
offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods.

36 Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart 
shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres: because the riches that 
he hath gotten are perished.

37 For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the 
hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.

38 There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, 
and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein 
is no pleasure, saith the LORD.

39 They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned 
the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all 
them about him.

40 For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall 
spread his wings over Moab.

41 Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty 
men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her 
pangs.

42 And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath 
magnified himself against the LORD.

43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of 
Moab, saith the LORD.

44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that 
getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring 
upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

45 They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the 
force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the 
midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of 
the head of the tumultuous ones.

46 Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy 
sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.

47 Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, 
saith the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
