Jeremiah 48:5 in Context — Jeremiah 48

3 ¡Voz de clamor de Horonaim, destrucción y gran quebrantamiento!

4 Moab fué quebrantada; hicieron que se oyese el clamor de sus pequeños.

5 Porque á la subida de Luhith con lloro subirá el que llora; porque á la bajada de Horonaim los enemigos oyeron clamor de quebranto.

6 Huid, salvad vuestra vida, y sed como retama en el desierto.

7 Pues por cuanto confiaste en tus haciendas, en tus tesoros, tú también serás tomada: y Chêmos saldrá en cautiverio, los sacerdotes y sus príncipes juntamente.
