Jeremiah 48:39-45
English Standard Version
40For thus says the Lord: "Behold, one shall fly swiftly like an eagle and spread his wings against Moab;
41 the cities shall be taken and the strongholds seized. The heart of the warriors of Moab shall be in that day like the heart of a woman in her birth pains;
42Moab shall be destroyed and be no longer a people, because he magnified himself against the Lord.
43 Terror, pit, and snare are before you, O inhabitant of Moab! declares the Lord.
44He who flees from the terror shall fall into the pit, and he who climbs out of the pit shall be caught in the snare. For I will bring these things upon Moab, the year of their punishment, declares the Lord.
45"In the shadow of Heshbon fugitives stop without strength, for fire came out from Heshbon, flame from the house of Sihon; it has destroyed the forehead of Moab, the crown of the sons of tumult.
