45“In the shadow of Heshbon

fugitives stand without strength,

for a fire has gone out from Heshbon,

and a flame from Sihon.

And it has eaten the forehead of Moab,

and the skullse of the peoplef of tumult.

46Woe to you, Moab!

The people of Chemosh have perished.

For your sons have been taken into captivity,

and your daughters into captivity.

47Yet I will restore the fortunesg of Moab

in the last of the days,” declaresh Yahweh.

Thus fari is the judgment of Moab.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

“In the shadow of Heshbon

fugitives stop without strength,

for fire came out from Heshbon,

flame from the house of Sihon;

it has destroyed the forehead of Moab,

the crown of the sons of tumult.

Woe to you, O Moab!

The people of Chemosh are undone,

for your sons have been taken captive,

and your daughters into captivity.

Yet I will restore the fortunes of Moab

in the latter days, declares the Lord.”

Thus far is the judgment on Moab.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“In the shadow of Heshbon

the fugitives stand helpless,

for a fire has gone out from Heshbon,

a blaze from the midst of Sihon;

it burns the foreheads of Moab,

the skulls of the noisy boasters.

Woe to you, Moab!

The people of Chemosh are destroyed;

your sons are taken into exile

and your daughters into captivity.

“Yet I will restore the fortunes of Moab

in days to come,”

declares the Lord.

Here ends the judgment on Moab.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Those who flee will stand exhausted in Heshbon’s shadow

because fire has come out from Heshbon

and a flame from within Sihon.

It will devour Moab’s forehead

and the skull of the noisemakers.

Woe to you, Moab!

The people of Chemosh have perished

because your sons have been taken captive

and your daughters have gone into captivity.

Yet, I will restore the fortunes of Moab in the last days.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

The judgment on Moab ends here.

NLTNew Living Translation

“The people flee as far as Heshbon

but are unable to go on.

For a fire comes from Heshbon,

King Sihon’s ancient home,

to devour the entire land

with all its rebellious people.

“What sorrow awaits you, O people of Moab!

The people of the god Chemosh are destroyed!

Your sons and your daughters

have been taken away as captives.

But I will restore the fortunes of Moab

in days to come.

I, the Lord, have spoken!”

This is the end of Jeremiah’s prophecy concerning Moab.

KJV 1900King James Version

They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force:

But a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon,

And a flame from the midst of Sihon,

And shall devour the corner of Moab,

And the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.

Woe be unto thee, O Moab!

The people of Chemosh perisheth:

For thy sons are taken captives,

And thy daughters captives.

Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab

In the latter days, saith the Lord.

Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
