Jeremías 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!''

Jeremías 48:17 In-Context

15 Sin embargo, ahora Moab será destruida junto con sus ciudades.
Sus jóvenes más prometedores son condenados a la masacre,
—dice el Rey, cuyo nombre es el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales—.
16 Pronto se acerca la destrucción de Moab;
se avecina una calamidad amenazante.
17 ¡Amigos de Moab,
lloren y lamenten por esta nación!
¡Miren cómo se ha quebrado el cetro fuerte,
y se ha hecho pedazos el hermoso bastón!
18 »Bájense de su gloria
y siéntense en el polvo, gente de Dibón,
porque los que destruyan a Moab también harán pedazos a Dibón.
Ellos derribarán todas sus torres.
19 Habitantes de Aroer,
párense junto al camino y observen.
Griten a los que huyen de Moab:
“¿Qué sucedió allí?”.
