39 “They shall wail:
‘How she is broken down!
How Moab has turned her back with shame!’
So Moab shall be a derision
And a dismay to all those about her.”

40 For thus says the Lord:
“Behold, ^aone shall fly like an eagle,
And ^bspread his wings over Moab. ‡

42 And Moab shall be destroyed ^aas a people,
Because he exalted himself against the Lord. ‡

43 ^aFear and the pit and the snare shall be upon you,
O inhabitant of Moab,” says the Lord. ‡
