Jeremiah 48:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 Moab’s glory is no more.
In Heshbon they plot evil against her:
“Come! We will put an end to her as a nation.”
You, too, Madmen,[a] shall be silenced;
you the sword stalks!
3 Listen! an outcry from Horonaim,(A)
“Ruin and great destruction!”
4 “Moab is crushed!”
their outcry is heard in Zoar.
