Isaiah 16:3

Moab Destroyed

1 Send ^athe lamb to the ruler of the land,
^bFrom¹ Sela to the wilderness,
To the mount of the daughter of Zion.

2 For it shall be as a ^awandering bird thrown out of the nest;
So shall be the daughters of Moab at the fords of the ^bArnon.

3 “Take counsel, execute judgment;
Make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day;
Hide the outcasts,
Do not betray him who escapes.

4 Let My outcasts dwell with you, O Moab;
Be a shelter to them from the face of the¹ spoiler.
For the extortioner is at an end,
Devastation ceases,
The oppressors are consumed out of the land.

5 In mercy ^athe throne will be established;
And One will sit on it in truth, in the tabernacle of David,
^bJudging and seeking justice and hastening ^crighteousness.”

6 We have heard of the ^apride of Moab—
He is very proud—
Of his haughtiness and his pride and his wrath;
^bBut his¹ lies shall not be so.
