Jeremiah 48:12-16
English Standard Version
12 “Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I shall send to him pourers who will pour him, and empty his vessels and break his[a] jars in pieces. 13 Then (A)Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as (B)the house of Israel was ashamed of (C)Bethel, their confidence.
14 “How do you say, ‘We are heroes
and mighty men of war’?
15 The destroyer of (D)Moab and his cities has come up,
and the choicest of his young men have (E)gone down to slaughter,
declares (F)the King, (G)whose name is the Lord of hosts.
16 The calamity of Moab is near at hand,
and his affliction hastens swiftly.
