Jeremiah 48:13-15
New Catholic Bible
13 Moab will then be ashamed of Chemosh,
as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel[a]
in which they placed their trust.
14 How can you say, “We are heroes,
men who are valiant in battle”?
15 The destroyer of Moab and its towns
has launched an attack,
and the flower of its youth has been slaughtered,
says the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
