²⁴ They will flee from an iron weapon;
    a bronze arrow will strike them through.^(A)

¹⁹     as if someone fled from a lion
    and was met by a bear
or went into the house and rested a hand against the wall
    and was bitten by a snake.^(A)

¹⁸ Whoever flees at the sound of the terror
    shall fall into the pit,
and whoever climbs out of the pit
    shall be caught in the snare.
For the windows of heaven are opened,
    and the foundations of the earth tremble.^(A)

³⁵ He trains my hands for war,
    so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.^(A)

⁴³ Terror, pit, and trap
    are before you, O inhabitants of Moab!
            says the Lord.^(A)
44 Everyone who flees from the terror
    shall fall into the pit,
and everyone who climbs out of the pit
    shall be caught in the trap.
For I will bring these things^[a] upon Moab
    in the year of their punishment,
            says the Lord.^(B)

²³     until an arrow pierces its entrails.
He is like a bird rushing into a snare,
    not knowing that it will cost him his life.^(A)
