A Message Concerning Moab
9 Give wings to Moab so that it may flee and get away; for its cities shall be a desert, without an inhabitant in them. 10 Cursed is he who does the work of Jehovah deceitfully, and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood. 11 Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, nor has he gone into exile. Therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
