Jeremiah 48:38-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁸ Upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof general mourning: because I have broken Moab as an useless vessel, saith the Lord.

³⁹ How is it overthrown, and they have howled! How hath Moab bowed down the neck, and is confounded! And Moab shall be a derision, and an example to all round about him.

⁴⁰ Thus saith the Lord: Behold he shall fly as an eagle, and shall stretch forth his wings to Moab.
