Jeremiah 48:44-46
International Standard Version
44 “The one who flees from the terror
will fall into a pit.
And the one who comes up out of the pit
will be caught in a trap.
For I’ll bring upon her, that is upon Moab,
the time of her[a] punishment,”
declares the Lord.
45 “The fugitives will stand without strength
in the shadow of Heshbon,
for fire will go out from Heshbon
and a flame from the middle of Sihon.
It will devour the forehead of Moab
and the heads of the rebellious people.[b]
46 How terrible for you, Moab!
The people of Chemosh[c] will perish.
Indeed, your sons will be taken into captivity,
and your daughters as well.[d]
