Jeremiah 48:21-30 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

21. "Judgment has also come upon the plain, upon Holon, Jahzah and against Mephaath,

22. against Dibon, Nebo and Beth-diblathaim,

23. against Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul and Beth-meon,

24. against Kerioth, Bozrah and all the cities of the land of Moab, far and near.

25. The horn of Moab has been cut off and his arm broken," declares the Lord.

26. "Make him drunk, for he has become arrogant toward the Lord; so Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will become a laughingstock.

27. Now was not Israel a laughingstock to you? Or was he caught among thieves? For each time you speak about him you shake your head in scorn.

28. "Leave the cities and dwell among the crags, O inhabitants of Moab, And be like a dove that nests Beyond the mouth of the chasm.

29. "We have heard of the pride of Moab-he is very proud- Of his haughtiness, his pride, his arrogance and his self-exaltation.

30. "I know his fury," declares the Lord, "But it is futile; His idle boasts have accomplished nothing.
