Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,

The wicked will not rule the land of the godly, for then the godly might be tempted to do wrong.

For you will break the yoke of their slavery and lift the heavy burden from their shoulders. You will break the oppressor’s rod, just as you did when you destroyed the army of Midian.

“ What sorrow awaits Assyria, the rod of my anger. I use it as a club to express my anger.

Do not rejoice, you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken— that the king who attacked you is dead. For from that snake a more poisonous snake will be born, a fiery serpent to destroy you!

But now Moab and his towns will be destroyed. His most promising youth are doomed to slaughter,” says the King, whose name is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.“ Destruction is coming fast for Moab; calamity threatens ominously.You friends of Moab, weep for him and cry! See how the strong scepter is broken, how the beautiful staff is shattered!
