Jeremiah 48:37 in Context — Jeremiah 48

35 Y haré cesar de Moab, dice Jehová, quien sacrifique en altar, y quien ofrezca sahumerio á sus dioses.

36 Por tanto, mi corazón resonará como flautas por causa de Moab, asimismo resonará mi corazón á modo de flautas por los hombres de Kir-heres: porque perecieron las riquezas que había hecho.

37 Porque en toda cabeza habrá calva, y toda barba será raída; sobre todas manos rasguños, y sacos sobre todos los lomos.

38 Sobre todas las techumbres de Moab y en sus calles, todo él será llanto; porque yo quebranté á Moab como á vaso que no agrada, dice Jehová.

39 Aullad: ¡Cómo ha sido quebrantado! ¡cómo volvió la cerviz Moab, y fué avergonzado! Y fué Moab en escarnio y en espanto á todos los que están en sus alrededores.
