Jeremiah 48:39-41
World English Bible

39 “How it is broken down!
    How they wail!
How Moab has turned the back with shame!
    So will Moab become a derision
    and a terror to all who are around him.”
40 For Yahweh says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle,
    and will spread out his wings against Moab.
41 Kerioth is taken,
    and the strongholds are seized.
The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day
    will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

39 “How shattered(A) she is! How they wail!
    How Moab turns her back in shame!
Moab has become an object of ridicule,(B)
    an object of horror to all those around her.”

40 This is what the Lord says:

“Look! An eagle is swooping(C) down,
    spreading its wings(D) over Moab.
41 Kerioth[a](E) will be captured
    and the strongholds taken.
In that day the hearts of Moab’s warriors(F)
    will be like the heart of a woman in labor.(G)
