## Jeremiah 49:2-4 in Context (Verses 1–7 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/1) Concerning the Ammonites, thus saith the LORD; Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why *then* doth their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell in his cities?**
 
 [2 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/2) Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it shall be a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel be heir unto them that were his heirs, saith the LORD.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/3) Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled: cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth; lament, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king shall go into captivity, *and* his priests and his princes together.*
 
 [4 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/4) Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys, thy flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? that trusted in her treasures, *saying*, Who shall come unto me?*
 
 [5 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/5) Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts, from all those that be about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall gather up him that wandereth.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/6) And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith the LORD.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/jeremiah/49/7) ¶ Concerning Edom, thus saith the LORD of hosts; *Is* wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished?
