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?

Thy flowing valley - rather, 'thy valley shall flow'-namely, with the blood of the slain; in sad contrast to their "valleys" in which they had heretofore "gloried," and which flowed with milk and honey (Grotius). Or else as margin, 'shall flow away.'

O backsliding daughter - apostate from Yahweh, the God of their father Lot, to Moloch.

That trusted in her treasures - her resources for resisting the foe ().

Who shall come unto thee? Who can come unto thee (, "Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?")
