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)

¹⁷ Terror, the pit, and the snare
    are upon you, O inhabitants of the earth!^(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.^(B)
