Jeremiah 48:16-18

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁶ “The disaster of Moab will ^(A)soon come,
And his calamity has swiftly hastened.
¹⁷ “Mourn for him, all you who live around him,
Even all of you who know his name;
Say, ‘How has the mighty ^[a](B)scepter been broken,
A staff of splendor!’
¹⁸ “^(C)Come down from your glory
And sit ^[b]on the parched ground,
O ^(D)daughter dwelling in ^(E)Dibon,
For the destroyer of Moab has come up against you,
He has ruined your strongholds.
