Jeremiah 48:17

Grieve for him, all you who are around him,

and all who know his name;

say, ‘How the mighty scepter is broken,

the glorious staff.’

Mourn for her, all who live around her,

all who know her fame;

say, ‘How broken is the mighty scepter,

how broken the glorious staff!’

You friends of Moab,

weep for him and cry!

See how the strong scepter is broken,

how the beautiful staff is shattered!

Mourn for him, all his surroundings,

and all those who knew his name.

Say, ‘How the staff of might is broken,

the staff of glory.’

All ye that are about him, bemoan him;

And all ye that know his name,

Say, How is the strong staff broken,

And the beautiful rod!
