Jeremías 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 ) .

35 Y haré desaparecer de Moabdeclara el SEÑORal que ofrece sacrificios en lugar alto y al que quema incienso a sus dioses.
36 Por tanto, mi corazón gime por Moab como una flauta; mi corazón gime también como una flauta por los hombres de Kir-hares, ya que perdieron la abundancia que se había producido.
37 Porque toda cabeza está rapada y toda barba rasurada; en todas las manos hay sajaduras y sobre los lomos cilicio.
38 En todas las terrazas de Moab y en sus calles todo es lamentación, porque he quebrado a Moab como a vaso indeseable declara el SEÑOR.
