On all the ahousetops of Moab,
And in its streets;
For I have bbroken Moab like a vessel in which is no pleasure,” says the Lord.

And in its streets;
For I have bbroken Moab like a vessel in which is no pleasure,” says the Lord.
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.”

How Moab has turned her back with shame!’
So Moab shall be a derision
And a dismay to all those about her.”
41 Kerioth is taken,
And the strongholds are surprised;
aThe mighty men’s hearts in Moab on that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
And the strongholds are surprised;
aThe mighty men’s hearts in Moab on that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
