Jeremiah 48:39-44

39Oh, how shattered Moab will be! Oh, how her people will wail! Oh, how she will turn away in shame! Moab will become an object of ridicule, a terrifying sight to all the nations that surround her.”

40For the Lord says, “Look! Like an eagle with outspread wings a nation will swoop down on Moab.

41Her towns will be captured. Her fortresses will be taken. At that time the soldiers of Moab will be frightened like a woman in labor.

42Moab will be destroyed and no longer be a nation, because she has vaunted herself against the Lord.

43Terror, pits, and traps are in store for the people who live in Moab. I, the Lord, affirm it!

44Anyone who flees at the sound of terror will fall into a pit. Anyone who climbs out of the pit will be caught in a trap. For the time is coming when I will punish the people of Moab. I, the Lord, affirm it!
