Jeremiah 48:44-46
American Standard Version
44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon him, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith Jehovah.
45 [a]They that fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; [b]for a fire is gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and hath devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones. 46 Woe unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh is undone; for thy sons are taken away captive, and thy daughters into captivity.

Jeremiah 48:44-46
New International Version
44 “Whoever flees(A) from the terror
will fall into a pit,
whoever climbs out of the pit
will be caught in a snare;
for I will bring on Moab
the year(B) of her punishment,”
declares the Lord.
45 “In the shadow of Heshbon
the fugitives stand helpless,
for a fire has gone out from Heshbon,
a blaze from the midst of Sihon;(C)
it burns the foreheads of Moab,
the skulls(D) of the noisy boasters.
46 Woe to you, Moab!(E)
The people of Chemosh are destroyed;
your sons are taken into exile
and your daughters into captivity.
