Jeremiah 48:41

39 “How shattered it is! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in shame! Moab has become an object of ridicule and horror to all those around him.”

40 For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, an eagle swoops down and spreads his wings against Moab.

Kirioth has been taken, and the strongholds seized. In that day the heart of Moab’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.

42 Moab will be destroyed as a nation because he vaunted himself against the LORD.

43 Terror and pit and snare await you, O dweller of Moab,” declares the LORD.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
