Jeremiah 48:44

A Message Concerning Moab

⁴³ Panic, pit, and trap
await you, resident of Moab.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
⁴⁴ He who flees from the panic will fall in the pit,
and he who climbs from the pit
will be captured in the trap,
for I will bring against Moab
the year of their punishment.
This is the Lord’s declaration. ⁴⁵ Those who flee will stand exhausted in Heshbon’s shadow
because fire has come out from Heshbon
and a flame from within Sihon.
It will devour Moab’s forehead
and the skull of the noisemakers.

Says the Lord

Time is Coming

Declares The Lord
