Jeremiah 48:39-44

39“HowH349 1shatteredH2865 it is! How they have wailedH3213! HowH349 MoabH4124 has turnedH6437 his backH6203--he is ashamedH954! So MoabH4124 will becomeH1961 a laughingstockH7814 and an 2objectH4288 of terrorH4288 to allH3605 aroundH5439 him.”

40For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068: “BeholdH2009, one will 3flyH1675 swiftlyH1675 like an eagleH5404 And 4spreadH6566 out his wingsH3671 againstH413 MoabH4124.41KeriothH7152 has been capturedH3920 And the strongholdsH4679 have been seizedH8610, So the 5heartsH3820 of the mightyH1368 menH1368 of MoabH4124 in that dayH3117 Will be like the heartH3820 of a 6womanH802 in laborH6887.42MoabH4124 will be 7destroyedH8045 from being a peopleH5971 BecauseH3588 he has 8becomeH1431 9arrogantH1431 towardH5921 the LordH3068.4310TerrorH6343, pitH6354 and snareH6341 are coming upon you, O inhabitantH3427 of MoabH4124,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.44“The one who 11fleesH5127 from the terrorH6343 Will fallH5307 into the pitH6354, And the one who climbsH5927 up out of the pitH6354 Will be caughtH3920 in the snareH6341; For I shall bringH935 upon her, even upon MoabH4124, The yearH8141 of their 12punishmentH6486,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.
