Jérémie 48:42 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:42

And Moab shall be destroyed from [being] a people
For some time, not always; since the captivity of Moab is promised to be returned, ( Jeremiah 48:47 ) ; or from being such a people as they had been, enjoying so much ease, wealth, power, and prosperity. Abarbinel takes it to be a comparative, and renders it, "more than a people"; that is, shall be destroyed more than any other people; but the former sense is best; because he hath magnified [himself] against the Lord;
the Targum is, against the people of the Lord; this is the cause of his destruction; (See Gill on Jeremiah 48:26).

40 Car ainsi a dit l'Éternel: Voici, l'ennemi vole comme l'aigle, et il Ă©tend ses ailes sur Moab.
41 KĂ©rijoth est prise, et les lieux forts sont saisis; et le cƓur des hĂ©ros de Moab sera, en ce jour-lĂ , comme le cƓur d'une femme en travail.
42 Et Moab sera exterminĂ©; il cessera d'ĂȘtre un peuple; car il s'est Ă©levĂ© contre l'Éternel.
43 Sur toi sont la terreur, la fosse et le filet, habitant de Moab! dit l'Éternel.
44 Celui qui fuit devant la terreur, tombera dans la fosse, et celui qui remonte de la fosse, sera pris au filet. Car je fais venir sur lui, sur Moab, l'annĂ©e de leur visitation, dit l'Éternel.
