43 Terror, traps, and trackers are upon you, people of Moab, declares the LORD.

Jeremiah 48:43 In-Context

41 The towns will be captured; the strongholds will be seized. On that day, the heart of every soldier from Moab will be like that of a woman in the throes of labor.
42 Moab will be destroyed once and for all because it has exalted itself above the LORD.
43 Terror, traps, and trackers are upon you, people of Moab, declares the LORD.
44 Those who flee from terror will fall into a pit; those who escape the pit will be captured by the trap. I will bring upon Moab the year of its punishment, declares the LORD.
45 In Heshbon tired refugees seek shelter. But fire is raging in Heshbon, flames from the house of Sihon. It has burned up part of Moab, including the leader of this rebellious nation.
