Let my outcasts of Moab dwell as aliens among you;
    be a hiding place for them from the presence of the destroyer.”
When the oppressor is no more, destruction has stopped,
    the one who tramples has[a] disappeared from the land,

    and zealous for righteousness.

    of his arrogance, pride, and insolence; his boasting is not true.[b]
