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.
And One will sit on it in truth, in the tabernacle of David,
bJudging and seeking justice and hastening crighteousness.”
He is very proud—
Of his haughtiness and his pride and his wrath;
bBut his1 lies shall not be so.
Everyone shall wail.
For the foundations bof Kir Hareseth you shall mourn;
Surely they are stricken.
And bthe vine of Sibmah;
The lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants,
Which have reached to Jazer
And wandered through the wilderness.
Her branches are stretched out,
They are gone over the csea.
With the weeping of Jazer;
I will drench you with my tears,
aO Heshbon and Elealeh;
For battle cries have fallen
Over your summer fruits and your harvest.

Isaiah 16:6
We - The prophet having spoken to the Moabites, now turns his speech to God's people. The sense is, I do not expect that my counsels will have any good effect upon Moab; they will still carry themselves insolently and outrageously. His lies - His vain imaginations, and false and crafty counsels, shall not take effect.
