"Moab will be destroyed and no longer be a nation, because she has vaunted herself against the LORD."
— Jeremiah 48:42, NET Bible
“And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the Lord.”
“And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against Jehovah. ”
“Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.”
“And Moab shall cease to be a people: because he hath gloried against the Lord.”
“And Moab will come to an end as a people, because he has been lifting himself up against the Lord.”
“And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the Lord.”
Oh, how shattered Moab will be! Oh, how her people will wail! Oh, how she will turn away in shame! Moab will become an object of ridicule, a terrifying sight to all the nations that surround her.”
For the LORD says,“Look! Like an eagle with outspread wings a nation will swoop down on Moab.
Her towns will be captured. Her fortresses will be taken. At that time the soldiers of Moab will be frightened like a woman in labor.
Moab will be destroyed and no longer be a nation, because she has vaunted herself against the LORD.
Terror, pits, and traps are in store for the people who live in Moab. I, the LORD, affirm it!
Anyone who flees at the sound of terror will fall into a pit. Anyone who climbs out of the pit will be caught in a trap. For the time is coming when I will punish the people of Moab. I, the LORD, affirm it!
In the shadows of the walls of Heshbon those trying to escape will stand helpless. For a fire will burst forth from Heshbon. Flames will shoot out from the former territory of Sihon. They will burn the foreheads of the people of Moab, the skulls of those war-loving people.
