Jeremiah 48:9-11
New Living Translation
9 Oh, that Moab had wings
so she could fly away,[a]
for her towns will be left empty,
with no one living in them.
10 Cursed are those who refuse to do the Lord’s work,
who hold back their swords from shedding blood!
11 “From his earliest history, Moab has lived in peace,
never going into exile.
He is like wine that has been allowed to settle.
He has not been poured from flask to flask,
and he is now fragrant and smooth.
Footnotes
- 48:9 Or Put salt on Moab, / for she will be laid waste.
