Jeremiah 48:15-17

Revised Standard Version

¹⁵ The destroyer of Moab and his cities has come up,
    and the choicest of his young men have gone down to slaughter,
    says the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
¹⁶ The calamity of Moab is near at hand
    and his affliction hastens apace.
¹⁷ Bemoan him, all you who are round about him,
    and all who know his name;
say, ‘How the mighty scepter is broken,
    the glorious staff.’
