Nor did any of the inhabitants of the earth,
That the adversary (oppressor) and enemy
Could enter the gates of Jerusalem.

And commission it against the people of My wrath
To take the spoil and to seize the plunder,

And Moab will be trampled down in his place
As straw is trampled down in the [filthy] water of a manure pile.

In my midst;
He has proclaimed an established time against me
To crush my young men.
