Jeremiah 48:39-41
The Voice

39 How broken he is! How the people wail!
    How the once-proud Moab turns away in shame!
See how Moab has become a laughingstock
    and a horror to all his neighbors.

40 Eternal One: Look in the distance: an eagle will swoop down
        and spread his wings over Moab, his prey.
41     The cities will be captured and the strongholds seized.
        On that day the heart of Moab’s warriors
    Will be like the heart of a woman in labor—helpless and vulnerable.

“Look! An eagle is swooping(C) down,

In that day the hearts of Moab’s warriors(F)
