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.
And joy from the plentiful field;
In the vineyards there will be no singing,
Nor will there be shouting;
No treaders will tread out wine in the presses;
I have made their shouting cease.
When it is seen that Moab is weary on athe high place,
That he will come to his sanctuary to pray;
But he will not prevail.
| << Isaiah 16:6 | Isaiah 16:8 >> |
