Jeremiah 48:15-26

1. 15 Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

2. 16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.

3. 17 All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!

4. 18 Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strong holds.

5. 19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?

6. 20 Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,

7. 21 And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,

8. 22 And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Bethdiblathaim,

9. 23 And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Bethgamul, and upon Bethmeon,

10. 24 And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.

11. 25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD.

12. 26 Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
