A Message Concerning Moab

43 Terror, pit and snare are coming upon you,
O inhabitant of Moab,” declares the Lord.
44 “The one who flees from the terror
Will fall into the pit,
And the one who climbs up out of the pit
Will be caught in the snare;

The year of their punishment,” declares the Lord.
45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
The fugitives stand without strength;

And the scalps of the riotous revelers.
