Números 24:22

22 todavia, vocês, queneus, serão destruídosquando Assur os levar prisioneiros”.

Números 24:22 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 24:22

Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted
Though they were so strongly fortified, and closely immured and surrounded with rocks and mountains, yet they should gradually waste away, as they were but few in Saul's time, ( 1 Samuel 15:6 )

until Ashur shall carry thee away captive;
Tiglathpileser, king of Assyria, when he carried captive the people of Syria, took these with them, ( 2 Kings 16:9 ) , though Jarchi thinks they were carried captives with the ten tribes, that is, by Shalmaneser, king of Assyria; and the Targum of Jonathan, by Sennacherib, king of Assyria; and others think by Nebuchadnezzar, who was sometimes reckoned a king of Assyria; taking them to be the same with the Amalekites, who were carried captives and returned with the two tribes.

21 Depois viu os queneus e pronunciou este oráculo:“Sua habitação é segura,seu ninho está firmado na rocha;
22 todavia, vocês, queneus, serão destruídosquando Assur os levar prisioneiros”.
23 Finalmente pronunciou este oráculo:“Ah, quem poderá viver quando Deus fizer isto?
24 Navios virão da costa de Quitime subjugarão Assur e Héber,mas o seu fim também será destruição”.
