Jeremiah 48:37-39
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
37 For every head is shaven bald and every beard cut off: upon all the hands are cuts (slashes) and upon the loins is sackcloth [all to express mourning].(A)
38 On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation everywhere, for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which there is no pleasure, says the Lord.
39 How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in shame! So Moab has become [an object of] a derision and a [horrifying] terror to all who are round about him.

Jeremiah 48:37-39
New International Version
37 Every head is shaved(A)
and every beard(B) cut off;
every hand is slashed
and every waist is covered with sackcloth.(C)
38 On all the roofs in Moab
and in the public squares(D)
there is nothing but mourning,
for I have broken Moab
like a jar(E) that no one wants,”
declares the Lord.
39 “How shattered(F) she is! How they wail!
How Moab turns her back in shame!
Moab has become an object of ridicule,(G)
an object of horror to all those around her.”
