Jeremiah 48:8-10

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁸And the destroyer shall come upon every city; no city shall escape. The [Jordan] valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be devastated, as the Lord has said.

⁹Give wings to Moab, for [by that means only] she will flee and get away; her cities will be desolate, without any to dwell in them.

¹⁰Cursed be he who does the work of the Lord negligently [with slackness, deceitfully]; and cursed be he who keeps back his sword from blood [in executing judgment pronounced by the Lord].
