And (A)the plunderer shall come against every city;
No one shall escape.
The valley also shall perish,
And the plain shall be destroyed,
As the Lord has spoken.

“Give(B) wings to Moab,
That she may flee and get away;
For her cities shall be desolate,
Without any to dwell in them.
10 (C)Cursed is he who does the work of the Lord deceitfully,
And cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.

11 “Moab has been at ease from [a]his youth;
He (D)has settled on his dregs,
And has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
Nor has he gone into captivity.
Therefore his taste remained in him,
And his scent has not changed.

12 “Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord,
“That I shall send him [b]wine-workers
Who will tip him over
And empty his vessels
And break the bottles.
13 Moab shall be ashamed of (E)Chemosh,
As the house of Israel (F)was ashamed of (G)Bethel, their confidence.

14 “How can you say, (H)‘We are mighty
And strong men for the war’?
15 Moab is plundered and gone up from her cities;
Her chosen young men have (I)gone down to the slaughter,” says (J)the King,
Whose name is the Lord of hosts.

16 “The calamity of Moab is near at hand,
And his affliction comes quickly.
17 Bemoan him, all you who are around him;
And all you who know his name,
Say, (K)‘How the strong staff is broken,
The beautiful rod!’

18 “O (L)daughter inhabiting (M)Dibon,
Come down from your glory,
And sit in thirst;
For the plunderer of Moab has come against you,
He has destroyed your strongholds.
19 O inhabitant of (N)Aroer,
(O)Stand by the way and watch;
Ask him who flees
And her who escapes;
Say, ‘What has happened?’
20 Moab is shamed, for he is broken down.
(P)Wail and cry!
Tell it in (Q)Arnon, that Moab is plundered.

21 “And judgment has come on the plain country:
On Holon and Jahzah and Mephaath,
22 On Dibon and Nebo and Beth Diblathaim,
23 On Kirjathaim and Beth Gamul and Beth Meon,
24 On (R)Kerioth and Bozrah,
On all the cities of the land of Moab,
Far or near.
25 (S)The [c]horn of Moab is cut off,
And his (T)arm is broken,” says the Lord.

  1. Jeremiah 48:4 So with MT, Tg., Vg.; LXX Proclaim it in Zoar

For the indignation of the Lord is against all nations,
And His fury against all their armies;
He has utterly destroyed them,
He has given them over to the (A)slaughter.
Also their slain shall be thrown out;
(B)Their stench shall rise from their corpses,
And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
(C)All the host of heaven shall be dissolved,
And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll;
(D)All their host shall fall down
As the leaf falls from the vine,
And as (E)fruit falling from a fig tree.

“For (F)My sword shall be bathed in heaven;
Indeed it (G)shall come down on Edom,
And on the people of My curse, for judgment.
The (H)sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
It is made [a]overflowing with fatness,
With the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For (I)the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
The wild oxen shall come down with them,
And the young bulls with the mighty bulls;
Their land shall be soaked with blood,
And their dust [b]saturated with fatness.”

For it is the day of the Lord’s (J)vengeance,
The year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
