So shall be the daughters of Moab at the fords of the bArnon.

Make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day;

Do not betray him who escapes.

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.

bBut his1 lies shall not be so.
