## Jeremiah 48:43-45 in Context (Verses 40–47 KJV)
 
 [40 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/40) For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.
 
 [41 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/41) Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men’s hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.*
 
 [42 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/42) And Moab shall be destroyed from *being* a people, because he hath magnified *himself* against the LORD.
 
 [43 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/43) Fear, and the pit, and the snare, *shall be* upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the LORD.
 
 [44 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/44) 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 it, *even* upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
 
 [45 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/45) 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.*
 
 [46 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/46) Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.*
 
 [47 ](/kjv/jeremiah/48/47) ¶ Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far *is* the judgment of Moab.
 
[Jeremiah 47](/kjv/jeremiah/47) [Jeremiah 49](/kjv/jeremiah/49)
