The Moabites will stretch out their hands in the manure like swimmers who stretch out their hands to swim. ⌞The Lord⌟ will humble those arrogant people despite the movements of their hands.
That’s why the anger of the Lord burns hot against his people, and he is ready to use his power to strike them down. The hills tremble, and dead bodies lie like garbage in the streets. Even after all this, his anger has not disappeared, and he is still ready to use his power.
This is what the Lord God of Israel said to me: Take from my hand this cup filled with the wine of my fury, and make all the nations to whom I’m sending you drink from it.
