²¹ The mercenaries^(A) in her ranks
    are like fattened calves.^(B)
They too will turn and flee^(C) together,
    they will not stand their ground,
for the day^(D) of disaster is coming upon them,
    the time^(E) for them to be punished.

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.
