Jeremías 48:30 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:30

I know his wrath, saith the Lord
Against the Jews, and other nations; what he has threatened to do unto them, and would do if not restrained: but [it shall] not [be] so;
as he has devised in his mind, and threatened in his wrath; all his swelling thoughts and big words shall come to nothing: his lies shall not so effect [it];
it shall not be according to his words; they will prove lies, and of no effect. Kimchi interprets it of the sons of Moab, who shall not be able to do what they thought to do; and Jarchi of his mighty ones; and the Targum of his nobles, paraphrasing it,

``and their nobles are not right, they do not as is becoming;''

perhaps it may be better understood of his diviners and soothsayers, as the word is used in ( Isaiah 44:25 ) ; and be rendered, "his diviners have not done right" ^F6; they have deceived him with their lying oracles; swelled him with pride; and brought him to ruin, he trusting to them.

Jeremías 48:30 In-Context

28 Habitantes de Moab,¡abandonen las ciudadesy vivan entre las rocas!Sean como las palomasque anidan al borde de los precipicios.

29 »Conocemos bien el orgullo de Moab,ese orgullo exagerado.¡Tanta soberbia y tanto orgullo!¡Tanta arrogancia y altivez!

30 Yo conozco su insolencia,pero sus jactancias no logran nada—afirma el SEÑOR—.

31 Por eso lloro por Moab;gimo por toda su gente,sollozo por el pueblo de Quir Jeres.

32 Lloro por ti, viña de Sibma,más que por Jazer;tus sarmientos sobrepasan el mary llegan hasta Jazer,pero caerá el destructorsobre tu cosecha y sobre tu vendimia.
