Jeremiah 48:9 in context

1. 7For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures,
   you also will be taken.
   Chemosh will go out into captivity,
   his priests and his princes together.
2. 8The destroyer will come on every city,
   and no city will escape;
   the valley also will perish,
   and the plain will be destroyed; as Yahweh has spoken.
3. 9Give wings to Moab,
   that she may fly and get herself away:
   and her cities will become a desolation,
   without anyone to dwell in them.
4. 10“Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently;
   and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
5. 11“Moab has been at ease from his youth,
   and he has settled on his lees,
   and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
   neither has he gone into captivity:
   therefore his taste remains in him,
   and his scent is not changed.
