Jeremiah 49:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³ Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste!
    Cry out, O daughters^[a] of Rabbah!
Put on sackcloth,
    lament, and slash yourselves with whips!^[b]
For Milcom shall go into exile,
    with his priests and his attendants.
⁴ Why do you boast in your strength?
    Your strength is ebbing,
O faithless daughter.
    You trusted in your treasures, saying,
    ‘Who will attack me?’
⁵ I am going to bring terror upon you,
    says the Lord God of hosts,
    from all your neighbours,
and you will be scattered, each headlong,
    with no one to gather the fugitives.
