39. “They shall wail:‘How she is broken down!How Moab has turned her back with shame!’So Moab shall be a derisionAnd a dismay to all those about her.”
40. For thus says the Lord:“Behold, one shall fly like an eagle,And spread his wings over Moab.
41. Kerioth is taken,And the strongholds are surprised;The mighty men’s hearts in Moab on that day shall beLike the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
42. And Moab shall be destroyed as a people,Because he exalted himself against the Lord.
43. Fear and the pit and the snare shall be upon you,O inhabitant of Moab,” says the Lord.
