Isa. 15
:1
15:1
The burden concerning Moab:
Indeed in a night it is devastated —
Ar of Moab is cut off.
Indeed in a night it is devastated —
Kir of Moab is cut off.
Isa. 15
:2
15:2
They have gone up to their temple and to Dibon,
That is, to their high places, to weep.
Over Nebo and over Medeba
Moab howls;
aUpon all their heads is baldness;
Every beard is shaved off.
Isa. 15
:3
15:3
In their streets they have girded themselves with sackcloth;
On their roofs
And in their open squares everyone will howl,
Melting in tears.
Isa. 15
:4
15:4
And Heshbon and Elealeh cry out;
Their voice is heard as far as Jahaz.
Because of this the armed men of Moab raise a cry;
Their soul quivers within them.
Isa. 15
:5
15:5
My heart
acries out for Moab;
Its fugitives
reach as far as Zoar,
as far as Eglath-shelishiyah:
By the ascent of Luhith
With weeping they will go up;
On the way
that leads to Horonaim
They will raise up a cry of destruction;
Isa. 15
:6
15:6
The waters of Nimrim
Will be a devastation;
The foliage will be dried up, the grass wasted away;
There will be nothing green.
Isa. 15
:7
15:7
As a result, the abundance they have produced
And placed in reserve
Will be carried off
To the poplar brook.
Isa. 15
:8
15:8
For the cry has gone about
The border of Moab;
Their howling
goes as far as Eglaim,
Even to Beer-elim their howling
reaches.
Isa. 15
:9
15:9
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood,
For I will bring upon Dimon additional things:
Lions upon those in Moab who escape
And upon the remnant of the land.
