Jeremias 48:17 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:17

All ye that are about him, bemoan him
The neighbouring nations, such as the Ammonites, and others, are called upon to condole the sad case of Moab; all upon the borders of the country of Moab, either within them or without them: and all ye that know his name;
not only that had heard of his fame and glory, but knew in what grandeur and splendour he lived; these have a form of condolence given them: say, how is the strong staff broken, [and] the beautiful rod!
the mighty men of war, the staff of the nation, in which they trusted, destroyed; their fortified cities demolished; the powerful kingdom, which swayed the sceptre, and ruled in great glory, and was terrible and troublesome to others, now pulled down. The Targum is,

``how is the king broken that did evil, the oppressing ruler!''

Jeremias 48:17 In-Context

15 Já subiu o destruidor de Moabe e das suas cidades, e os seus mancebos escolhidos desceram � matança, diz o Rei, cujo nome é o Senhor dos exércitos.
16 A calamidade de Moabe está perto e muito se apressa o seu mal.
17 Condoei-vos dele todos os que estais em seu redor, e todos os que sabeis o seu nome; dizei: Como se quebrou a vara forte, o cajado formoso!
18 Desce da tua glória, e senta-te no pó, ó moradora, filha de Dibom; porque o destruidor de Moabe subiu contra ti, e desfez as tuas fortalezas.
19 Põe-te junto ao caminho, e espia, ó moradora do Aroer; pergunta ao que foge, e � que escapa: Que sucedeu?
