耶49:1 论到亚扪，耶和华这样说：“以色列没有子孙吗？没有后嗣吗？为什么米勒公竟承受了迦得为业呢？
耶49:1 About the children of Ammon. These are the words of the Lord: Has Israel no sons? has he no one to take the heritage? why then has Milcom taken Gad for himself, putting his people in its towns?
耶49:2 因此，看哪！日子快到（这是耶和华的宣告），我必使战争的吶喊声响起，有敌人来攻击亚扪的拉巴；拉巴必成为一片废墟，属它的乡镇（“乡镇”原文作“女子”）必被火焚烧。那时以色列人必从侵略他们的人的手中收回土地。”这是耶和华说的。

耶49:3 “希实本哪，你要哀号！因为艾城已被毁灭。拉巴的居民（“居民”原文作“女子”），你们要呼喊，要腰束麻布，要哀哭，要在城墙内跑来跑去。因为米勒公，以及事奉它的祭司和领袖，都必一同被掳去。
耶49:3 Make sounds of grief, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted; give loud cries, O daughters of Rabbah, and put haircloth round you: give yourselves to weeping, running here and there and wounding yourselves; for Milcom will be taken prisoner together with his rulers and his priests.

耶49:11 没有人会说：‘你撇下你的孤儿，我必使他们存活；你的寡妇可以倚靠我。’”

耶49:12 耶和华这样说：“看哪！原不该喝那杯的，尚且一定要喝，难道你可以完全免受刑罚吗？你必不能免受刑罚，你一定要喝那杯。

耶49:16 你那令人战栗的威风，你心中的傲气欺骗了你；你这住在岩石的隐密处，雄据山岭高处的啊！你虽如鹰在高处搭窝，我也必把你从那里拉下来。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶49:16 ... the pride of your heart has been a false hope, O you who are living in the cracks of the rock, keeping your place on the top of the hill: even if you made your living-place as high as the eagle, I would make you come down, says the Lord.

耶49:19 See, he will come up like a lion from the thick growth of Jordan against the resting-place of Teman: but I will suddenly make him go in flight from her; and I will put over her the man of my selection: for who is like me? and who will put forward his cause against me? and what keeper of sheep will be able to keep his place before me?
