Jeremiah 48:7-9
The Voice
7 You depended on your own works and your own wealth,
and now you will be humbled and taken captive.
Your so-called god, Chemosh, will go with you into exile
along with his priests and officials.
8 The destroyer is coming to each of your towns; none of them will escape.
The valley will be ruined;
The plateau will be destroyed
because I, the Eternal One, have spoken.
9 Give Moab wings so she can fly away.
Her cities will be a wasteland with no one living in them.
Jeremiah 48:7-9

8 The destroyer(E) will come against every town,
and not a town will escape.
The valley will be ruined
and the plateau(F) destroyed,

for she will be laid waste[a];(H)
her towns will become desolate,
with no one to live in them.
