Jeremiah 48:42-44

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴² Moab shall be destroyed as a people,
    because he magnified himself against the Lord.^(A)
43 Terror, pit, and trap
    are before you, O inhabitants of Moab!
            says the Lord.^(B)
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.^(C)
