Jeremiah 48:38-40
New American Standard Bible
38 On all the (A)housetops of Moab and in its public squares [a]there is mourning everywhere; for I have broken Moab like an undesirable (B)vessel,” declares the Lord. 39 “How [b]shattered it is! How they have wailed! How Moab has turned his back—he is ashamed! So Moab will become a laughingstock and an (C)object of terror to all around him.”
40 For this is what the Lord says:
“Behold, one will (D)fly swiftly like an eagle
And (E)spread out his wings against Moab.

How Moab turns her back in shame!
Moab has become an object of ridicule,(D)
an object of horror to all those around her.”
