10 For the hand of Yahweh will rest on this mountain,
    and Moab shall be trampled down under him
        as a heap of straw is trampled down[a] in waters of[b] a dung heap.
11 And it[c] will spread out its hands in the midst of it,
    just as the swimmer spreads out to swim,
        and its pride will be brought low with the movement[d] of its hands.
12 And he will throw down the fortification of the high point of your walls;
    he will bring it low;
he will send it[e] to the ground,
    to the dust.
