Bible Comments

Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein. Give wings unto Moab - There is no hope in resistance, and to escape requires the speediest flight. I cannot conceive how Dahler came to translate thus: Tirez Moab par les chevaux, "Drag Moab away by the hair of the head."

Jeremiah 48:9

9 Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
