Jeremiah 48:16-18

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁶Moab’s calamity is near at hand;
his disaster is rushing swiftly.
¹⁷Mourn for him, all you surrounding nations,
everyone who knows his name.
Say, ‘How the mighty sceptre^(A) is shattered,
the glorious staff! ’

¹⁸Come down from glory; sit on parched ground,
resident of the daughter of Dibon,^(B)
for the destroyer of Moab has come against you;
he has destroyed your fortresses.
