Jeremias 48:36 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:36

Therefore my heart shall sound for Moab like pipes
That are sounded on mournful occasions, as at funerals, and the like; see ( Matthew 9:23 ) . This the prophet said, as Kimchi observes, in the person of the people, the inhabitants of Moab; whose hearts would yearn and sound for the calamities of their country like the doleful sound of minstrels. So the Targum,

``therefore the Moabites shall sound in their hearts like a harp:''
and my heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres;
as for the country of Moab in general, so for this principal city, and the inhabitants of it, in particular; (See Gill on Isaiah 16:11); because the riches [that] he hath gotten is perished;
either Moab or Kirheres; the abundance of goods they had got together were now lost, falling into the hands of the enemy; and which was matter of lamentation. The Targum is,
``for the rest of their substance they had got were spoiled.''
Some understand it of the residue of men that escaped the sword; these perished by famine, or other means; see ( Isaiah 15:7 ) .

Jeremias 48:36 In-Context

34 O grito de Hesbom e Eleale se ouve até Jaza; fazem ouvir a sua voz desde Zoar até Horonaim, e até Eglate-Selíssia; pois também as águas do Ninrim virão a ser uma desolação.
35 Demais, farei desaparecer de Moabe, diz o Senhor, aquele que sacrifica nos altos, e queima incenso a seus deuses.
36 Por isso geme como flauta o meu coração por Moabe, e como flauta geme o meu coração pelos homens de Quir-Heres; porquanto a abundância que ajuntou se perdeu.
37 Pois toda cabeça é tosquiada, e toda barba rapada; sobre todas as mãos há sarjaduras, e sobre os lombos sacos.
38 Sobre todos os eirados de Moabe e nas suas ruas há um pranto geral; porque quebrei a Moabe, como a um vaso que não agrada, diz o Senhor.
