New Century Version
Jeremiah 48:44-46
New Century Version
44 “People will run from fear,
but they will fall into the pits.
Anyone who climbs out of the pits
will be caught in the traps.
I will bring the year of punishment to Moab,” says the Lord.
45 “People have run from the powerful enemy
and have gone to Heshbon for safety.
But fire started in Heshbon;
a blaze has spread from the hometown of Sihon king of Moab.
It burned up the leaders of Moab
and destroyed those proud people.
46 How terrible it is for you, Moab!
The people who worship Chemosh have been destroyed.
Your sons have been taken captive,
and your daughters have been taken away.

Jeremiah 48:44-46
New International Version
44 “Whoever flees(A) from the terror
will fall into a pit,
whoever climbs out of the pit
will be caught in a snare;
for I will bring on Moab
the year(B) of her punishment,”
declares the Lord.
45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
the fugitives stand helpless,
for a fire has gone out from Heshbon,
a blaze from the midst of Sihon;(C)
it burns the foreheads of Moab,
the skulls(D) of the noisy boasters.
46 Woe to you, Moab!(E)
The people of Chemosh are destroyed;
your sons are taken into exile
and your daughters into captivity.
