Jeremiah 48:10-12
Legacy Standard Bible
10 (A)Cursed be the one who does the work of Yahweh (B)with a slack hand,
And cursed be the one who restrains his (C)sword from blood.
11 “Moab has been (D)at ease since his youth;
He has also had (E)quiet, like wine on [a]its dregs,
And he has not been (F)emptied from vessel to vessel,
Nor has he gone into exile.
Therefore [b]he retains his flavor,
And his aroma has not changed.
12 Therefore behold, the days are coming,” declares Yahweh, “when I will send to him those who tip vessels, and they will tip him over, and they will empty his vessels and shatter [c]his jars.

New International Version
Jeremiah 48:10-12
New International Version
10 “A curse on anyone who is lax in doing the Lord’s work!
A curse on anyone who keeps their sword(A) from bloodshed!(B)
11 “Moab has been at rest(C) from youth,
like wine left on its dregs,(D)
not poured from one jar to another—
she has not gone into exile.
So she tastes as she did,
and her aroma is unchanged.
12 But days are coming,”
declares the Lord,
“when I will send men who pour from pitchers,
and they will pour her out;
they will empty her pitchers
and smash her jars.
