Jeremiah 48:32-34
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 48:32-34
Contemporary English Version
32 People of Sibmah,
you were like a vineyard
heavy with grapes,
and with branches reaching
north to the town of Jazer
and west to the Dead Sea.[a]
But you have been destroyed,
and so I will weep for you,
as the people of Jazer weep
for the vineyards.
33 Harvest celebrations are gone
from the orchards and farms
of Moab.
I have silenced the shouts
of people making wine.
34 Weeping from Heshbon
can be heard as far
as Elealeh and Jahaz;
cries from Zoar are heard
in Horonaim
and Eglath-Shelishiyah.
And Nimrim Creek has run dry.

Jeremiah 48:32-34
New International Version
32 I weep for you, as Jazer(A) weeps,
you vines of Sibmah.(B)
Your branches spread as far as the sea[a];
they reached as far as[b] Jazer.
The destroyer has fallen
on your ripened fruit and grapes.
33 Joy and gladness are gone
from the orchards and fields of Moab.
I have stopped the flow of wine(C) from the presses;
no one treads them with shouts of joy.(D)
Although there are shouts,
they are not shouts of joy.
