Geremia 48:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:18

Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon
A city in Moab; (See Gill on Isaiah 15:2). The Targum is,

``O kingdom of the congregation of Dibon;''
but this was not a kingdom of itself, though a principal city in the kingdom of Moab: come down from [thy] glory, and sit in thirst;
in a dry and thirsty land; in want of all the necessaries of life; in captivity; who before abounded with all good things, inhabiting a well watered and fruitful soil; see ( Isaiah 15:9 ) ; but now called to quit all their former glory and happiness, their fulness and felicity, and submit to the greatest straits and difficulties: for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, [and] he shall destroy
thy strong holds;
the king of Babylon and his army, who spoiled the other cities of Moab; he should come against this also, and take it, and demolish its fortifications, by reason of which it thought itself secure; but these should not be able to protect it.

16 La calamità di Moab è presta a venire, e il suo male si affretta molto.
17 Condoletevi con lui, voi suoi circonvicini tutti; e voi tutti, che conoscete il suo nome, dite: Come è stato rotto lo scettro di fortezza, la verga di gloria?
18 O figliuola abitatrice di Dibon, scendi del seggio di gloria, e siedi in luogo arido; perciocchè il guastatore di Moab è salito contro a te, egli ha disfatte le tue fortezze.
19 O abitatrice di Aroer, fermati in su la strada, e riguarda; domanda colui che fugge, e colei che scampa; di’: Che cosa è avvenuto?
20 Moab è confuso, perciocchè è stato rotto; urlate, e gridate; annunziate in su l’Arnon che Moab è stato guasto;
