Jeremiah 48:11 (KJV)
Commentary on Jeremiah 48:11
Moab's problem was ease and complacency - 'settled on his lees' (like wine undisturbed, keeping sediment). Never having experienced exile or defeat, Moab grew stagnant and proud. God's people benefit from trials that disturb complacency and refine character (Rom 5:3-5, James 1:2-4). Constant prosperity often produces spiritual stagnation rather than growth.
