11 “Moab has been at ease from his youth

and has settled on his dregs;

he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,

nor has he gone into exile;

so his taste remains in him,

and his scent is not changed.

12 “Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I shall send to him pourers who will pour him, and empty his vessels and break his jars in pieces.

11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth,

And he hath settled on his lees,

And hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel,

Neither hath he gone into captivity:

Therefore his taste remained in him,

And his scent is not changed.

12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord,

That I will send unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander,

And shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.

11 “From his earliest history, Moab has lived in peace,

never going into exile.

He is like wine that has been allowed to settle.

He has not been poured from flask to flask,

and he is now fragrant and smooth.

12 But the time is coming soon,” says the Lord,

“when I will send men to pour him from his jar.

They will pour him out,

then shatter the jar!

11 “Moab has been at ease from his youth;

He has settled on his dregs,

And has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,

Nor has he gone into captivity.

Therefore his taste remained in him,

And his scent has not changed.

12 “Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord,

“That I shall send him wine-workers

Who will tip him over

And empty his vessels

And break the bottles.

11 “The people of Moab have never known trouble.

They are like wine left to settle;

they have never been poured from one jar to another.

They have not been taken into captivity.

So they taste as they did before,

and their smell has not changed.

12 A time is coming,” says the Lord,

“When I will send people to pour you from your jars.

They will empty Moab’s jars

and smash her jugs.

11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remaineth in him, and his scent is not changed. 12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will send unto him them that pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.

11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and hath settled on his lees; he hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste hath remained in him, and his scent is not changed. 12 Therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that I will send unto him pourers that shall pour him off, and shall empty his vessels, and break in pieces his flagons.

11 “Moab has lived securely ever since it was young. 

Its people are like wine left to settle in a jar. 

They aren’t poured from one jar to another. 

They haven’t gone into captivity. 

That is why its flavor has remained the same, 

and its aroma hasn’t changed. 

12 That is why the days are coming,” declares the Lord, 

“when I will send people to pour Moab out of its jars 

and to smash its pitchers. 

11 Moab has been left quiet since his youth,

settled like wine on its dregs.

He hasn’t been poured from one container to another

or gone into exile.

So his taste has remained the same,

and his aroma hasn’t changed.

12 Therefore look, the days are coming —

this is the Lord’s declaration—

when I will send those to him, who will pour him out.

They will empty his containers

and smash his jars.

11 Moab has been at ease from his youth,

settled like wine on its dregs;

he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,

nor has he gone into exile;

therefore his flavor has remained

and his aroma is unspoiled.

12 Therefore, the time is surely coming, says the Lord, when I shall send to him decanters to decant him, and empty his vessels, and break his jars in pieces.

11 Moab has been at ease from his youth,

and he has been quiet on his dregs,

and he has not been poured out from vessel to vessel,

and he has not gone into exile.

Therefore his taste has remained unchanged,

and his fragrance has not changed.

12 Therefore look, days are coming,” declares Yahweh,

“and I will send to him decanters,

and they will decant him,

and his vessels they will empty out,

and their jars they will smash.

11 “Moab has been at peace and rest from its earliest days.

It is like wine that has not been shaken up.

It has not been poured from one jar to another.

Moab’s people have not been taken away from their land.

They are like wine that tastes as it always did.

Its smell has not changed at all.

12 But other days are coming,”

announces the Lord.

“At that time I will send people who pour wine from jars.

They will pour Moab out like wine.

They will empty its jars.

They will smash its jugs.

11 “Moab has been at ease since his youth;

He has also been undisturbed, like wine on its dregs,

And he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,

Nor has he gone into exile.

Therefore he retains his flavor,

And his aroma has not changed.

12 “Therefore behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will send to him those who tip vessels, and they will tip him over, and they will empty his vessels and shatter his jars.
