Jeremiah 48:42-44
Evangelical Heritage Version

42 Moab will be destroyed as a nation
because he has defied the Lord.
43 Panic, pit, and peril[a] are before you,
you who live in Moab, declares the Lord.
44 Whoever flees from the panic will fall into the pit.
Whoever gets out of the pit will be trapped in the snare,
for I will bring on Moab the year of their punishment,
says the Lord.

Footnotes

  1. Jeremiah 48:43 The Hebrew words pahad, pahat, and pah sound similar and are used for poetic effect. A bit of literalness is sacrificed in the rendering of pah to retain the effect. Pah is more literally trap.
