44 He who flees from the terror
    shall fall into the pit,
and he who climbs out of the pit
    shall be caught in the snare.
(A)For I will bring these things upon Moab,
    the year of their punishment,
declares the Lord.

45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
    fugitives stop without strength,
for fire came out from Heshbon,
    flame from the house of Sihon;
it has destroyed (B)the forehead of Moab,
    the crown of (C)the sons of tumult.
46 (D)Woe to you, O Moab!
    The people of (E)Chemosh are undone,
for your sons have been taken captive,
    and your daughters into captivity.
