42 Moab shall be destroyed as a people,
    because he magnified himself against the Lord.
43 Terror, pit, and trap
    are before you, O inhabitants of Moab!
says the Lord.
44 Everyone who flees from the terror
    shall fall into the pit,
and everyone who climbs out of the pit
    shall be caught in the trap.
For I will bring these things[a] upon Moab
    in the year of their punishment,
says the Lord.
