Jeremiah 48:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ Moab, you are like wine
left to settle undisturbed,
    never poured from jar to jar.
And so, your nation continues
    to prosper and improve.^[a]
12 But now, I will send enemies
to pour out the wine
    and smash the jars!
¹³ Then you will be ashamed,
because your god Chemosh
    cannot save you,
just as Bethel^[b] could not help
    the Israelites.
