Jeremiah
Jeremiah 48:34–35
34There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh;
they raise their voices to Jahaz,
from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah;
for even the waters of Nimrim have dried up.
35In Moab, declares the LORD,
I will bring an end
to those who make offerings on the high places
and burn incense to their gods.
