8. Not a town will escape the destruction;both valley and plain will be ruined.I, the Lord, have spoken.
9. Set up a tombstone for Moab;it will soon be destroyed.Its towns will be left in ruins,and no one will live there again.”
10. (Curse those who do not do the Lord's work with all their heart! Curse those who do not slash and kill!)
11. The Lord said, “Moab has always lived secure and has never been taken into exile. Moab is like wine left to settle undisturbed and never poured from jar to jar. Its flavour has never been ruined, and it tastes as good as ever.
12. “So now, the time is coming when I will send people to pour Moab out like wine. They will empty its wine jars and break them in pieces.
