10 For in this mountain the hand of the Lord shall rest,
    and Moab shall be trodden down in his place
    as straw is trodden down in the water for the manure pile.
11 He shall spread out his hands in the midst of it,
    as a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim,
yet the Lord shall bring down his pride
    together with the trickery of his hands.
12 The unassailable fortresses of your walls
    He shall bring down, lay low,
and bring to the ground,
    even to the dust.

    as straw is trampled down in the manure.
11 They will stretch out their hands in it,
    as swimmers stretch out their hands to swim.
God will bring down(C) their pride(D)
    despite the cleverness[a] of their hands.
12 He will bring down your high fortified walls(E)
    and lay them low;(F)
he will bring them down to the ground,
    to the very dust.
