you people of Moab,”

will fall into a pit,

whoever climbs out of the pit

the year of her punishment,”

O inhabitant of Moab, saith the Lord.

O inhabitant of Moab,” says the Lord.

The year of their punishment,” says the Lord.

people of Moab,” says the Lord.

but they will fall into the pits.

Anyone who climbs out of the pits

I will bring the year of punishment to Moab,” says the Lord.

43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith Jehovah. 44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon him, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith Jehovah.

await you, resident of Moab.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

and he who climbs from the pit

will be captured in the trap,

for I will bring against Moab

the year of their punishment.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

43 Terror, pit, and trap

are before you, O inhabitants of Moab!

says the Lord.

O inhabitant of Moab,” declares Yahweh.

will fall into the pit,

and the one who climbs up from the pit

will be caught in the trapping net,

for I will bring on Moab

the year of their punishment,” declares Yahweh.

announces the Lord,

“terror, a pit and a trap are waiting for you.

44 Anyone who runs away from the terror

will fall into the pit.

Anyone who climbs out of the pit

will be caught in the trap.

The time is coming

when I will punish Moab,”

announces the Lord.

43 “Terror, pit and snare are coming upon you,

O inhabitant of Moab,” declares the Lord.

Will fall into the pit,

And the one who climbs up out of the pit

Will be caught in the snare;

For I shall bring upon her, even upon Moab,

The year of their punishment,” declares the Lord.
