44 He who flees from the terrorshall fall into the pit,and he who gets up out of the pitwill be taken in the snare;for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab,the year of their punishment,says the Lord.
45 The fugitives stand without strengthunder the shadow of Heshbon;for a fire will come out of Heshbonand a flame from the midst of Sihon,and will devour the forehead of Moaband the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Woe to you, O Moab!The people of Chemosh have perished;for your sons have been taken away captiveand your daughters into captivity.
47 Yet I will restore the fortunes of Moabin the latter days,says the Lord.Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
