Jeremiah 48:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ Moab will be destroyed.
    Its enemies will march into its towns.
Its finest young men will die in battle,”
    announces the King.
    His name is the Lord Who Rules Over All.
¹⁶ “The fall of Moab is near.
    Its time of trouble will come quickly.
¹⁷ All you who live around it, mourn for its people.
    Be sad, you who know how famous Moab is.
Say, ‘Its powerful ruler’s scepter is broken!
    His glorious scepter is smashed.’
