Jeremiah 48:44

Context

48:44 Anyone who flees at the sound of terror

will fall into a pit.

Anyone who climbs out of the pit

will be caught in a trap. 1 

For the time is coming

when I will punish the people of Moab. 2 

I, the Lord, affirm it! 3 

1 sn Jer 48:43-44a are in the main the same as Isa 24:17-18 which shows that the judgment was somewhat proverbial. For a very similar kind of argumentation see Amos 5:19; judgment is unavoidable.

2 tn Heb “For I will bring upon her, even upon Moab, the year of her punishment.”

3 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
