10 Bad things will happen to those who
    don’t obey the Lord and don’t use their swords to kill those people.

11 “Moab has never known trouble.
    Moab is like wine left to settle.
Moab has never been poured from one jar to another.
    He has not been taken into captivity.
So he tastes as he did before,
    and his smell has not changed.”
12 This is what the Lord says:
“But I will soon send men
    to pour you from your jars.[a]
Then they will empty the jars
    and smash them to pieces.”
