Jeremiah 48:37-39
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
37 Every head has been shaved bald, every beard cut off; every hand gashed, and all their loins are draped in sackcloth.(A) 38 On all the rooftops of Moab and in all its squares there is mourning. I have shattered Moab like a pot that no one wants—oracle of the Lord. 39 How terrified they are, how they wail! How Moab turns its back in shame! Moab has become a laughingstock and a horror to all its neighbors!
