## Jeremiah 48:11-19 in Context (Verses 8–22 KJV)
 
 [8 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/8) And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD hath spoken.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/9) Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/10) Cursed *be* he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed *be* he that keepeth back his sword from blood.*
 
 [11 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/11) ¶ 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 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/12) 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.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/13) And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Beth-el their confidence.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/14) ¶ How say ye, We *are* mighty and strong men for the war?
 
 [15 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/15) Moab is spoiled, and gone up *out of* her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name *is* the LORD of hosts.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/16) The calamity of Moab *is* near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/17) All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, *and* the beautiful rod!
 
 [18 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/18) Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from *thy* glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, *and* he shall destroy thy strong holds.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/19) O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, *and* say, What is done?*
 
 [20 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/20) Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,
 
 [21 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/21) And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,
 
 [22 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/22) And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth-diblathaim,
