Jeremiah 48:41

A Message Concerning Moab

⁴⁰ This is what Jehovah says: 'Look! Someone is coming like an eagle diving down from the sky and spreading its wings over Moab. ⁴¹ “Kerioth has been captured
And the strongholds have been seized,
So the hearts of the mighty men of Moab in that day
Will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
⁴² The nation of Moab will be destroyed. This is because they thought they were greater than Jehovah.
