Jeremiah 48:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ The destruction of Moab is near to come: the calamity thereof shall come on exceeding swiftly.

¹⁷ Comfort him, all you that are round about him, and all you that know his name, say: How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod?

¹⁸ Come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst, O dwelling of the daughter of Dibon: because the spoiler of Moab is come up to thee, he hath destroyed thy bulwarks.
