Jeremiah 48:27-29

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁷ “Moab, you made fun of Israel.
    Israel was caught by a gang of thieves.
Every time you spoke about Israel,
    you shook your head and acted as if you were better than Israel.
²⁸ People in Moab, leave your towns.
    Go live among the rocks;
be like a dove that makes its nest
    at the opening of a cave.”

²⁹ “We have heard about Moab’s pride.
    He was very proud.
He thought he was important.
    He was always bragging.
    He was very, very proud.”
