42“Moab will be destroyed from being a people
         Because he has become arrogant toward the LORD.

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;
         For I shall bring upon her, even upon Moab,
         The year of their punishment,” declares the LORD.

45“In the shadow of Heshbon
         The fugitives stand without strength;
         For a fire has gone forth from Heshbon
         And a flame from the midst of Sihon,
         And it has devoured the forehead of Moab
         And the scalps of the riotous revelers.

46“Woe to you, Moab!
         The people of Chemosh have perished;
         For your sons have been taken away captive
         And your daughters into captivity.

47“Yet I will restore the fortunes of Moab
         In the latter days,” declares the LORD.
      Thus far the judgment on Moab.
