Jeremiah48:5

5 For in the going up of Luhith, continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction .

Of Luhith we read only in this place, and Isa. 15.5. It was a City of Moab and scituated upon an Hill, as appears both here and where it is mentioned in Isaiah, some think that to this City the Moabites fled for Sanctuary from the Chaldeans, and flying made so great an outcry that their Enemies who pursued them heard their cry.

Marginal references: Heb. weeping with weeping.
