Context Reading
38On all the housetops of Moab,and in its streets, there is lamentation everywhere;for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which no one delights,” says Yahweh. 39“How it is broken down!How they wail!How Moab has turned the back with shame!So will Moab become a derisionand a terror to all who are around him.” 40For Yahweh says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle,and will spread out his wings against Moab. 41Kerioth is taken,and the strongholds are seized.The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that daywill be as the heart of a woman in her pangs. 42Moab will be destroyed from being a people,because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
