New King James Version NKJV

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

43 Fear and the pit and the snare shall be upon you, O inhabitant of Moab," says the Lord.

44 "He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit, And he who gets out of the pit shall be caught in the snare. For upon Moab, upon it I will bring The year of their punishment," says the Lord.

45 "Those who fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon Because of exhaustion. But a fire shall come out of Heshbon, A flame from the midst of Sihon, And shall devour the brow of Moab, The crown of the head of the sons of tumult.

46 Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh perish; For your sons have been taken captive, And your daughters captive.

47 "Yet I will bring back the captives of Moab In the latter days," says the Lord. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
