jeremiah 48:29 We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.

jeremiah 48:29 "We have heard of the pride of Moab-- he [is] very proud-- Of his haughtiness, his pride, his arrogance and his self-exaltation.

29. pride-- (Isa 16:6, 7). Moab was the trumpeter of his own fame. Jeremiah adds "loftiness and arrogancy" to Isaiah's picture, so that Moab had not only not been bettered by the chastisement previously endured as foretold by Isaiah, but had even become worse; so that his guilt, and therefore his sentence of punishment, are increased now. Six times Moab's pride (or the synonyms) are mentioned, to show the exceeding hatefulness of his sin.

jeremiah 48:29 "We have heard of the pride of Moab-- he [is] very proud-- Of his haughtiness, his pride, his arrogance and his self-exaltation.
