Pro la kriado, kiu auxdigxas de HXesxbon gxis Eleale kaj gxis Jahac, ili lauxte ekploris de Coar gxis HXoronaim kaj gxis la tria Eglat; cxar ankaux la akvo de Nimrim sekmalaperis.
Jeremia 48:34
Country
Generally in the Bible a "country" means a political subdivision ruled by a king, or sometimes a tribe with a territory ruled by a king or chieftain. Others are what we now call city-states, with surrounding farm areas. In almost all cases these countries were far smaller than our modern idea of countries, though Egypt and Assyria would be exceptions. Sometimes the word is used to refer to countryside, a wide area with no consideration of boundaries as when the twelve Israelites were sent to spy out the country.

Ezekiel 16:10-13
10
I clothed you also with embroidered work, and shod you with sealskin, and I dressed you about with fine linen, and covered you with silk.
11
I decked you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your hands, and a chain on your neck.
12
I put a ring on your nose, and earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head.
13
Thus you were decked with gold and silver; and your clothing was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work; you ate fine flour, and honey, and oil; and you were exceeding beautiful, and you prospered to royal estate.
