Jeremiah 48:31-36
Therefore I wail over Moab, for all Moab I cry out, I moan for the people of Kir Hareseth.I weep for you, as Jazer weeps, you vines of Sibmah. Your branches spread as far as the sea; they reached as far as Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your ripened fruit and grapes.Joy and gladness are gone from the orchards and fields of Moab. I have stopped the flow of wine from the presses; no one treads them with shouts of joy. Although there are shouts, they are not shouts of joy.“ The sound of their cry rises from Heshbon to Elealeh and Jahaz, from Zoar as far as Horonaim and Eglath Shelishiyah, for even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.In Moab I will put an end to those who make offerings on the high places and burn incense to their gods,” declares the Lord.“ So my heart laments for Moab like the music of a pipe; it laments like a pipe for the people of Kir Hareseth. The wealth they acquired is gone. (niv)

They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.” (niv)
