Jeremiah 48:39 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Those that formerly lived in Moab, when it was in its glory, shall lament to see how the case is altered with it, that all its glory is broken down, and they that were wont to conquer their enemies turn their backs with shame upon their enemies. And Moab, that was wont to be the praise and admiration of all people, was become an astonishment, and an object of derision and scoffing to them.

Jeremiah 48:39

39 They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the backk with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.
