Jeremiah 48:10-12
Living Bible
Jeremiah 48:10-12
Living Bible
10 Cursed be those withholding their swords from your blood, refusing to do the work that God has given them!
11 From her earliest history Moab has lived there undisturbed from all invasions. She is like wine that has not been poured from flask to flask and is fragrant and smooth. But now she shall have the pouring out of exile! 12 The time is coming soon, the Lord has said, when he will send troublemakers to spill her out from jar to jar and then shatter the jars!

New International Version
Jeremiah 48:10-12
New International Version
10 “A curse on anyone who is lax in doing the Lord’s work!
A curse on anyone who keeps their sword(A) from bloodshed!(B)
11 “Moab has been at rest(C) from youth,
like wine left on its dregs,(D)
not poured from one jar to another—
she has not gone into exile.
So she tastes as she did,
and her aroma is unchanged.
12 But days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will send men who pour from pitchers,
and they will pour her out;
they will empty her pitchers
and smash her jars.
