10. Cursed be he that doeth the work of the Lord negligently, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.
11. Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remaineth in him, and his scent is not changed.
12. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will send unto him them that pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
13. And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Beth-el their confidence.
14. How say ye, We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?
15. Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into her cities; and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
