Geremia 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 ) .

Geremia 48:36 In-Context

34 Per lo grido di Hesbon, che è pervenuto infino ad Eleale, hanno messi i lor gridi infino a Iahas, e da Soar infino ad Horonaim, come una giovenca di tre anni; perciocchè anche le acque di Nimrim sono state ridotte in luoghi deserti.
35 Ed io farò venir meno a Moab, dice il Signore, ogni uomo che offerisca sacrificio nell’alto luogo, e che faccia profumi a’ suoi dii.
36 Per tanto, il mio cuore romoreggerà per Moab, a guisa di flauti; il mio cuore romoreggerà per la gente di Chir-heres, a guisa di flauti; perciò ancora il loro avanzo, ch’aveano fatto, perirà.
37 Perciocchè ogni testa sarà pelata, ed ogni barba sarà rasa; sopra tutte le mani vi saranno delle tagliature, e de’ sacchi sopra i lombi.
38 Sopra tutti i tetti di Moab, e nelle sue piazze, non vi sarà altro che cordoglio; perciocchè io ho rotto Moab, come un vaso del quale non si fa stima alcuna, dice il Signore.
