審判亞捫的預言
49 論到亞捫人，耶和華說：
「難道以色列沒有子孫，
沒有繼承人嗎？
為什麼祭拜米勒公的人佔據了迦得，住在城邑中？」
2 耶和華說：
「看啊，時候將到，
我要使亞捫人的拉巴城外響起戰爭的呐喊。
拉巴必淪為廢墟，
它周圍的鄉村都要被焚燒，
以色列人必收復失地。
這是耶和華說的。
3 「希實本啊，哀哭吧！
因為艾城毀滅了。
拉巴的居民啊，痛哭吧！
披上麻衣悲傷地在城牆內跑來跑去吧！
因為米勒公及其祭司和官長都要被擄走。
4 背叛的人民啊，
你們為肥沃的山谷而感到自豪嗎？
你們依仗財富以為無人敢來侵犯。」
5 上帝——萬軍之耶和華說：
「看啊，我要使你們四面受敵，
驚恐萬狀，四散奔逃，
潰不成軍。
6 然而，日後我要使被擄的亞捫人重建家園。
這是耶和華說的。」
審判以東的預言
7 論到以東，萬軍之耶和華說：
「提幔再沒有智者了嗎？
謀士已無計可施了嗎？
他們都失去智慧了嗎？
8 底但的居民啊，
你們要轉身逃命，
藏在深洞裡，
因為我必降災禍懲罰以東。
9 人們來以東摘葡萄，不會摘盡；
盜賊夜間來偷東西，不會偷光。
10 但我要奪走以東人所有的一切，
我要使他們無處藏身。
他們及其孩子、弟兄和鄰居必一同滅亡。
11 撇下你們的孤兒吧！
我必使他們存活；
你們的寡婦也可以倚靠我。」
12 耶和華說：「看啊，那些本不該喝這杯憤怒的人尚且要喝，更何況你們呢？你們必難逃懲罰，你們一定要喝這杯憤怒。 13 因為我已憑自己起誓，波斯拉必淪為廢墟，令人驚懼，被人嘲笑和咒詛。它周圍的村鎮要永遠荒涼。這是耶和華說的。」
14 我從耶和華那裡聽到消息，
有位使者被派去聯合列國來攻打以東。
15 耶和華說：
「以東啊，我要使你在列國中成為被藐視的弱國。
16 你這棲身在石縫間、盤踞在高山上的民族啊，
你令人驚懼、心高氣傲，
其實只是自欺。
儘管你像老鷹在高處搭窩，
我也必把你拉下來。
這是耶和華說的。
17 「以東的下場將很可怕，它的滿目瘡痍令路人驚懼、嗤笑。 18 那裡要像所多瑪、蛾摩拉及其周圍的村鎮一樣被毀滅，荒無人煙。這是耶和華說的。 19 看啊，我必在瞬間把以東人趕離家園，如約旦河邊叢林中跳出的獅子趕散草場的羊群。我要派我揀選的人統治這地方。誰能與我相比？誰能與我較量？哪位首領能抵擋我？」 20 因此，你們要聽聽耶和華攻擊以東的策略，聽聽祂攻擊提幔居民的計劃。他們的孩子要被拖走，他們的家園要被毀滅。 21 以東傾覆的聲音震動大地，哭喊聲直傳到紅海。 22 看啊，敵人必像展翅飛來的鷹一樣攻擊波斯拉。到那日，以東的勇士必像臨盆的婦女一樣膽戰心驚。
審判大馬士革的預言
23 論到大馬士革，耶和華說：
「哈馬和亞珥拔驚恐不安，
因為他們聽見了壞消息。
他們心驚膽戰，像大海一樣無法平靜。
24 大馬士革喪失勇氣，轉身逃命。
她像分娩的婦人一樣驚恐不安，
充滿痛苦和憂愁。
25 我所喜悅的名城為何還沒有被撇棄？
26 城中的青年將倒斃街頭，
那時所有的戰士都要滅亡。
這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
27 我要焚燒大馬士革的城牆和便·哈達的宮殿。」
審判基達和夏瑣的預言
28 論到被巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒打敗的基達及夏瑣的各城邦，耶和華說：
「迦勒底人啊，去攻打基達，
消滅那些東方人吧！
29 你們要搶走他們的帳篷、
幔子、器皿、羊群和駱駝。
他們必聽見呼喊聲，
『真恐怖！四面都是敵人。』
30 夏瑣的居民啊，快逃命吧！
逃得遠遠的藏起來，
因為巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒已計劃攻擊你們，
準備消滅你們。
這是耶和華說的。
31 迦勒底人啊，
上去攻打那安逸無憂、無門無閂、獨居一方的國家吧！
這是耶和華說的。
32 他們的駱駝必被擄去，
大群的牲畜必成為戰利品。
我要把剃去鬢髮的人驅散到四方，
使災禍從四面八方臨到他們。
這是耶和華說的。
33 夏瑣要永遠荒涼，
杳無人跡，
成為豺狼出沒的地方。」
審判以攔的預言
34 猶大王西底迦執政初期，耶和華告訴了耶利米先知有關以攔的事。 35 萬軍之耶和華說：「看啊，我要摧毀以攔的弓箭手——他們的精銳之師。 36 我要使敵人從四面八方如風而來，把以攔人驅散到四方，使他們流落到列國。 37 我要讓仇敵擊潰他們，我要發烈怒降禍給他們，用刀劍追殺他們，直到徹底消滅他們。這是耶和華說的。 38 我要在以攔設立我的寶座，消滅那裡的君王和官長。這是耶和華說的。 39 但將來有一天，我要使被擄的以攔人重建家園。這是耶和華說的。」

New International Version
A Message About Ammon
49 Concerning the Ammonites:(A)
This is what the Lord says:
“Has Israel no sons?
Has Israel no heir?
Why then has Molek[a](B) taken possession of Gad?(C)
Why do his people live in its towns?
2 But the days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will sound the battle cry(D)
against Rabbah(E) of the Ammonites;
it will become a mound of ruins,(F)
and its surrounding villages will be set on fire.
Then Israel will drive out
those who drove her out,(G)”
says the Lord.
3 “Wail, Heshbon,(H) for Ai(I) is destroyed!
Cry out, you inhabitants of Rabbah!
Put on sackcloth(J) and mourn;
rush here and there inside the walls,
for Molek(K) will go into exile,(L)
together with his priests and officials.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys,
boast of your valleys so fruitful?
Unfaithful Daughter Ammon,(M)
you trust in your riches(N) and say,
‘Who will attack me?’(O)
5 I will bring terror on you
from all those around you,”
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.
“Every one of you will be driven away,
and no one will gather the fugitives.(P)
6 “Yet afterward, I will restore(Q) the fortunes of the Ammonites,”
declares the Lord.
A Message About Edom(R)(S)
7 Concerning Edom:(T)
This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?(U)
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
8 Turn and flee, hide in deep caves,(V)
you who live in Dedan,(W)
for I will bring disaster on Esau
at the time when I punish him.
9 If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?
If thieves came during the night,
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
10 But I will strip Esau bare;
I will uncover his hiding places,(X)
so that he cannot conceal himself.
His armed men are destroyed,
also his allies and neighbors,
so there is no one(Y) to say,
11 ‘Leave your fatherless children;(Z) I will keep them alive.
Your widows(AA) too can depend on me.’”
12 This is what the Lord says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup(AB) must drink it, why should you go unpunished?(AC) You will not go unpunished, but must drink it. 13 I swear(AD) by myself,” declares the Lord, “that Bozrah(AE) will become a ruin and a curse,[b] an object of horror(AF) and reproach;(AG) and all its towns will be in ruins forever.”(AH)
14 I have heard a message from the Lord;
an envoy was sent to the nations to say,
“Assemble yourselves to attack it!
Rise up for battle!”
15 “Now I will make you small among the nations,
despised by mankind.
16 The terror you inspire
and the pride(AI) of your heart have deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks,(AJ)
who occupy the heights of the hill.
Though you build your nest(AK) as high as the eagle’s,
from there I will bring you down,”
declares the Lord.
17 “Edom will become an object of horror;(AL)
all who pass by will be appalled and will scoff
because of all its wounds.(AM)
18 As Sodom(AN) and Gomorrah(AO) were overthrown,
along with their neighboring towns,”
says the Lord,
“so no one will live there;
no people will dwell(AP) in it.
19 “Like a lion(AQ) coming up from Jordan’s thickets(AR)
to a rich pastureland,
I will chase Edom from its land in an instant.
Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this?
Who is like(AS) me and who can challenge me?(AT)
And what shepherd(AU) can stand against me?”
20 Therefore, hear what the Lord has planned against Edom,(AV)
what he has purposed(AW) against those who live in Teman:(AX)
The young of the flock(AY) will be dragged away;
their pasture will be appalled at their fate.(AZ)
21 At the sound of their fall the earth will tremble;(BA)
their cry(BB) will resound to the Red Sea.[c]
22 Look! An eagle will soar and swoop(BC) down,
spreading its wings over Bozrah.(BD)
In that day the hearts of Edom’s warriors(BE)
will be like the heart of a woman in labor.(BF)
A Message About Damascus
23 Concerning Damascus:(BG)
“Hamath(BH) and Arpad(BI) are dismayed,
for they have heard bad news.
They are disheartened,
troubled like[d] the restless sea.(BJ)
24 Damascus has become feeble,
she has turned to flee
and panic has gripped her;
anguish and pain have seized her,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(BK)
25 Why has the city of renown not been abandoned,
the town in which I delight?
26 Surely, her young men(BL) will fall in the streets;
all her soldiers will be silenced(BM) in that day,”
declares the Lord Almighty.
27 “I will set fire(BN) to the walls of Damascus;(BO)
it will consume(BP) the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.(BQ)”
A Message About Kedar and Hazor
28 Concerning Kedar(BR) and the kingdoms of Hazor,(BS) which Nebuchadnezzar(BT) king of Babylon attacked:
This is what the Lord says:
“Arise, and attack Kedar
and destroy the people of the East.(BU)
29 Their tents and their flocks(BV) will be taken;
their shelters will be carried off
with all their goods and camels.
People will shout to them,
‘Terror(BW) on every side!’
30 “Flee quickly away!
Stay in deep caves,(BX) you who live in Hazor,(BY)”
declares the Lord.
“Nebuchadnezzar(BZ) king of Babylon has plotted against you;
he has devised a plan against you.
31 “Arise and attack a nation at ease,
which lives in confidence,”
declares the Lord,
“a nation that has neither gates nor bars;(CA)
its people live far from danger.
32 Their camels(CB) will become plunder,
and their large herds(CC) will be spoils of war.
I will scatter to the winds(CD) those who are in distant places[e](CE)
and will bring disaster on them from every side,”
declares the Lord.
33 “Hazor(CF) will become a haunt of jackals,(CG)
a desolate(CH) place forever.
No one will live there;
no people will dwell(CI) in it.”
A Message About Elam
34 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam,(CJ) early in the reign of Zedekiah(CK) king of Judah:
35 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“See, I will break the bow(CL) of Elam,
the mainstay of their might.
36 I will bring against Elam the four winds(CM)
from the four quarters of heaven;(CN)
I will scatter them to the four winds,
and there will not be a nation
where Elam’s exiles do not go.
37 I will shatter Elam before their foes,
before those who want to kill them;
I will bring disaster on them,
even my fierce anger,”(CO)
declares the Lord.
“I will pursue them with the sword(CP)
until I have made an end of them.
38 I will set my throne in Elam
and destroy her king and officials,”
declares the Lord.
39 “Yet I will restore(CQ) the fortunes of Elam
in days to come,”
declares the Lord.

King James Version
49 Concerning the Ammonites, thus saith the Lord; Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why then doth their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell in his cities?
2 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it shall be a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel be heir unto them that were his heirs, saith the Lord.
3 Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled: cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth; lament, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king shall go into captivity, and his priests and his princes together.
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys, thy flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? that trusted in her treasures, saying, Who shall come unto me?
5 Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord God of hosts, from all those that be about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall gather up him that wandereth.
6 And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith the Lord.
7 Concerning Edom, thus saith the Lord of hosts; Is wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished?
8 Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I will visit him.
9 If grapegatherers come to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, they will destroy till they have enough.
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not.
11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.
12 For thus saith the Lord; Behold, they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup have assuredly drunken; and art thou he that shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink of it.
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith the Lord, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.
14 I have heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent unto the heathen, saying, Gather ye together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.
15 For, lo, I will make thee small among the heathen, and despised among men.
16 Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, and the pride of thine heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the Lord.
17 Also Edom shall be a desolation: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues thereof.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the Lord, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell in it.
19 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan against the habitation of the strong: but I will suddenly make him run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
20 Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord, that he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.
21 The earth is moved at the noise of their fall, at the cry the noise thereof was heard in the Red sea.
22 Behold, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread his wings over Bozrah: and at that day shall the heart of the mighty men of Edom be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 Concerning Damascus. Hamath is confounded, and Arpad: for they have heard evil tidings: they are fainthearted; there is sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
24 Damascus is waxed feeble, and turneth herself to flee, and fear hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail.
25 How is the city of praise not left, the city of my joy!
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the Lord of hosts.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.
28 Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon shall smite, thus saith the Lord; Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and spoil the men of the east.
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: they shall take to themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry unto them, Fear is on every side.
30 Flee, get you far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
31 Arise, get you up unto the wealthy nation, that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord, which have neither gates nor bars, which dwell alone.
32 And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter into all winds them that are in the utmost corners; and I will bring their calamity from all sides thereof, saith the Lord.
33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.
34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
37 For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger, saith the Lord; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them:
38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the Lord.
39 But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the Lord.
