Amos 1:15

And their king shall go into captivity, &c. into exile (Amos 1:5). The verse is borrowed by Jeremiah, with slight changes, in his prophecy against the Ammonites (Jeremiah 49:3), "For their king shall go into exile, his priests and his princes together" where the addition of -priests" makes it probable that for malcâm-their king," we should read, with most of the ancient versions, Milcom, the name of the national God of the Ammonites (1 Kings 11:5, &c.).
