Jeremiah 48:44-46

Common English Bible

⁴⁴ Those who flee from terror
        will fall into a pit;
    those who escape the pit
        will be captured by the trap.
I will bring upon Moab
    the year of its punishment,
        declares the Lord.
⁴⁵ In Heshbon tired refugees seek shelter.
    But fire is raging in Heshbon,
        flames from the house^[a] of Sihon.
It has burned up part of Moab,
    including the leader of this rebellious nation.^[b]
46 How terrible for you, Moab;
    the people of Chemosh have perished.
Your sons have been carried off;
    your daughters have been taken captive.
