Jeremiah 48:18
Compare all
16 “The calamity of Moab is near at hand,
And his affliction comes quickly.
17 Bemoan him, all you who are around him;
And all you who know his name,
Say, a‘How the strong staff is broken,
The beautiful rod!’ 
18 “O adaughter inhabiting bDibon,
Come down from your glory,
And sit in thirst;
For the plunderer of Moab has come against you,
He has destroyed your strongholds. 
19 O inhabitant of aAroer,
bStand by the way and watch;
Ask him who flees
And her who escapes;
Say, ‘What has happened?’ 
20 Moab is shamed, for he is broken down.
aWail and cry!
Tell it in bArnon, that Moab is plundered.
