Jeremiah 48:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹⁰“Cursed is he who does the work of the Lord with slackness; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from bloodshed.

¹¹“Moab has been at ease from his youth
    and has settled on his lees;
he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
    nor has he gone into exile;
so his taste remains in him,
    and his scent is not changed.

¹²“Therefore, behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I shall send to him tilters who will tilt him, and empty his vessels, and break his^[a] jars in pieces.
