Jeremiah 48:25

Context
48:25 Moab’s might will be crushed. Its power will be broken. 1  I, the Lord, affirm it! 2 

1 tn Heb “The horn of Moab will be cut off. His arm will be broken.” “Horn” and “arm” are both symbols of strength (see BDB 902 s.v. קֶרֶן 2 [and compare usage in Lam 2:3] and BDB 284 s.v. זְרוֹעַ 2 [and compare usage in 1 Sam 2:31]). The figures have been interpreted for the sake of clarity.

2 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
