Jeremiah 48:17-19
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
17 Comfort him, all you that are round about him, and all you that know his name, say: How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod?
18 Come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst, O dwelling of the daughter of Dibon: because the spoiler of Moab is come up to thee, he hath destroyed thy bulwarks.
19 Stand in the way, and look out, O habitation of Aroer: inquire of him that fleeth: and say to him that hath escaped: What Is done?

Jeremiah 48:17-19
New International Version
17 Mourn for her, all who live around her,
all who know her fame;(A)
say, ‘How broken is the mighty scepter,(B)
how broken the glorious staff!’
18 “Come down from your glory
and sit on the parched ground,(C)
you inhabitants of Daughter Dibon,(D)
for the one who destroys Moab
will come up against you
and ruin your fortified cities.(E)
19 Stand by the road and watch,
you who live in Aroer.(F)
Ask the man fleeing and the woman escaping,
ask them, ‘What has happened?’
