Jeremiah 48:17-19

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁷Mourn for him, all you surrounding nations,
everyone who knows his name.
Say, ‘How the mighty sceptre^(A) is shattered,
the glorious staff! ’

¹⁸Come down from glory; sit on parched ground,
resident of the daughter of Dibon,^(B)
for the destroyer of Moab has come against you;
he has destroyed your fortresses.
¹⁹Stand by the road and watch,
resident of Aroer!^(C)
Ask him who is fleeing or her who is escaping,^(D)
‘What happened? ’
