Jeremiah 48:42-44
New King James Version
42 And Moab shall be destroyed (A)as a people,
Because he exalted himself against the Lord.
43 (B)Fear and the pit and the snare shall be upon you,
O inhabitant of Moab,” says the Lord.
44 “He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit,
And he who gets out of the pit shall be caught in the (C)snare.
For upon Moab, upon it (D)I will bring
The year of their punishment,” says the Lord.
Isaiah 13:7-9
New King James Version
7 Therefore all hands will be limp,
Every man’s heart will melt,
8 And they will be afraid.
(A)Pangs[a] and sorrows will take hold of them;
They will be in pain as a woman in childbirth;
They will be amazed at one another;
Their faces will be like flames.
9 Behold, (B)the day of the Lord comes,
Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger,
To lay the land desolate;
And He will destroy (C)its sinners from it.
