The people of Judah say, "We have heard how proud the people of Moab are. We know that they are arrogant and conceited, but their boasts are empty."

"But I know everything about you, what you do and where you go. I know how you rage against me.

I have received the report of that rage and that pride of yours, and now I will put a hook through your nose and a bit in your mouth and will take you back by the same road you came."

Death to its lying prophets--- what fools they are! Death to its soldiers--- how terrified they are!

He takes what he wants, and no one can stop him; no one dares ask him, "What are you doing?"

God's anger is constant. He crushed his enemies who helped Rahab, the sea monster, oppose him.

The LORD frustrates the purposes of the nations; he keeps them from carrying out their plans.

Human wisdom, brilliance, insight---they are of no help if the LORD is against you.
