6 Flee, save your lives,and be like the juniper in the wilderness.
7 For because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures,you will also be captured;and Chemosh shall go forth into captivitytogether with his priests and his officials.
8 The destroyer will come upon every city,and no city will escape.The valley also will perish,and the plain will be destroyed,as the Lord has spoken.
9 Give wings to Moab,that she may flee and get away;for the cities will become desolate,without any to dwell in them.
10 Cursed be he who does the work of the Lord negligently,and cursed be he who keeps back his sword from blood.
11 Moab has been at ease from his youth,and he has also been undisturbed,like wine on its dregs,and he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,nor has he gone into captivity.Therefore his taste remained in him,and his scent has not changed.
12 Therefore, surely the days are coming,says the Lord,when I will send to him those who tip vessels,and they will tip him over,and will empty his vesselsand break his bottles.
