Jeremiah 48:25

MoabMoab

23 upon Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,

24 upon Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of Moab, those far and near.

The horn of Moab has been cut off, and his arm is broken,” declares the LORD.

26 “Make him drunk, because he has magnified himself against the LORD; so Moab will wallow in his own vomit, and he will also become a laughingstock.

27 Was not Israel your object of ridicule? Was he ever found among thieves? For whenever you speak of him you shake your head.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
