Jeremiah 48:33-35
Good News Translation
33 Happiness and joy have been taken away from the fertile land of Moab. I have made the wine stop flowing from the wine presses; there is no one to make the wine and shout for joy.
34 “The people of Heshbon and Elealeh cry out,[a] and their cry can be heard as far as Jahaz; it can be heard by the people in Zoar, and it is heard as far as Horonaim and Eglath Shelishiyah. Even Nimrim Brook has dried up. 35 I will stop the people of Moab from making burnt offerings at their places of worship and from offering sacrifices to their gods. I, the Lord, have spoken.

Jeremiah 48:33-35
New International Version
33 Joy and gladness are gone
from the orchards and fields of Moab.
I have stopped the flow of wine(A) from the presses;
no one treads them with shouts of joy.(B)
Although there are shouts,
they are not shouts of joy.
34 “The sound of their cry rises
from Heshbon(C) to Elealeh(D) and Jahaz,(E)
from Zoar(F) as far as Horonaim(G) and Eglath Shelishiyah,
for even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.(H)
35 In Moab I will put an end
to those who make offerings on the high places(I)
and burn incense(J) to their gods,”
declares the Lord.
