  1. 43Terror, the pit, and the snare are on you,
    inhabitant of Moab,” says Yahweh.
  2. 44“He who flees from the terror will fall into the pit;
    and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare:
    for I will bring on him, even on Moab,
    the year of their visitation,” says Yahweh.
  3. 45“Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon;

    and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
  4. 46Woe to you, O Moab!
    The people of Chemosh are undone;
    for your sons are taken away captive,
    and your daughters into captivity.
  5. 47“Yet I will reverse the captivity of Moab in the latter days,”
    says Yahweh.
    Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
