Jeremiah 48:16-25

16“Moab’s calamity will come soon, and his downfall hastens swiftly.

17Mourn for him, all who are around him, all who know his name. Say: ‘How the mighty scepter, the splendid rod, is broken!’

18O daughter dwelling in Dibon come down from your glory and sit in thirst! For Moab’s destroyer has come to you. He has devastated your strongholds.

19O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the road and watch— ask him fleeing and her escaping, ‘What has happened?’

20Moab is disgraced, indeed shattered. Wail and shriek! Declare by the Arnon, Moab is ruined!

21Judgment has come on the tableland —on Holon, Jahzah, Mephaath,

22on Dibon, Nebo, Beth-diblathaim,

23on Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, Beth-meon,

24on Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of the land of Moab, far and near.

25The horn of Moab is cut off and his arm is broken!” It is a declaration of Adonai.
