Jeremiah 48:42-44

Contemporary English Version

⁴² You are finished as a nation,
because you dared oppose me,
    the Lord.
⁴³ Terror, pits, and traps
    are waiting for you.
⁴⁴ If you are terrified and run,
    you will fall into a pit;
and if you crawl out of the pit,
    you'll get caught in a trap.
The time has come
    for you to be punished.
I, the Lord, have spoken.
