37. The people shave their heads and beards in mourning. They slash their hands and put on clothes made of burlap.
38. There is crying and sorrow in every Moabite home and on every street. For I have smashed Moab like an old, unwanted jar.
39. How it is shattered! Hear the wailing! See the shame of Moab! It has become an object of ridicule, an example of ruin to all its neighbors.”
40. This is what the lord says:“Look! The enemy swoops down like an eagle,spreading his wings over Moab.
