Jeremiah 48:43-47
New American Standard Bible 1995
43 “(A)Terror, pit and snare are coming upon you,
O inhabitant of Moab,” declares the Lord.
44 “The one who (B)flees from the terror
Will fall into the pit,
And the one who climbs up out of the pit
Will be caught in the snare;
For I shall bring upon her, even upon Moab,
The year of their (C)punishment,” declares the Lord.
45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
The fugitives stand without strength;
For a fire has gone forth from Heshbon
And a (D)flame from the midst of (E)Sihon,
And it has devoured the (F)forehead of Moab
And the scalps of the [a]riotous revelers.
46 “(G)Woe to you, Moab!
The people of (H)Chemosh have perished;
For your sons have been taken away captive
And your daughters into captivity.
47 “Yet I will (I)restore the [b]fortunes of Moab
In the [c]latter days,” declares the Lord.
Thus far the judgment on Moab.

They will carry off for themselves
Their tent (A)curtains, all their goods and their (B)camels,
And they will call out to one another, ‘(C)Terror on every side!’
