Isaiah 16:12
Compare all
10 aGladness is taken away,
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. 
11 Therefore amy heart shall resound like a harp for Moab,
And my inner being for1 Kir Heres. 
12 And it shall come to pass,
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.  
13 This is the word which the Lord has spoken concerning Moab since that time.
14 But now the Lord has spoken, saying, “Within three years, aas the years of a hired man, the glory of Moab will be despised with all that great multitude, and the remnant will be very small and feeble.”

Isaiah 16:12

when it is seen that—rather, "When Moab shall have appeared (before his gods; compare Exodus 23:15), when he is weary (that is, when he shall have fatigued himself with observing burdensome rites; I Kings 18:26, etc.), on the high place (compare Isaiah 15:2), and shall come to his sanctuary (of the idol Chemosh on Mount Nebo) to pray, he shall not prevail"; he shall effect nothing by his prayers [MAURER].
