(He is exceedingly proud),
Of his loftiness and arrogance and bpride,
And of the haughtiness of his heart.”
And I will cry out for all Moab;
1I will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
Your plants have gone over the sea,
They reach to the sea of Jazer.
The plunderer has fallen on your summer fruit and your vintage.
From the plentiful field
And from the land of Moab;
I have caused wine to1 fail from the winepresses;
No one will tread with joyous shouting—
Not joyous shouting!
They have uttered their voice,
cFrom Zoar to Horonaim,
Like1 a three-year-old heifer;
For the waters of Nimrim also shall be desolate.
“I will cause to cease in Moab
aThe one who offers sacrifices in the1 high places
And burns incense to his gods.
And like flutes My heart shall wail
For the men of Kir Heres.
Therefore bthe riches they have acquired have perished.
On all the hands shall be cuts, and bon the loins sackcloth—
On all the ahousetops of Moab,
And in its streets;
For I have bbroken Moab like a vessel in which is no pleasure,” says the Lord.
‘How she is broken down!
How Moab has turned her back with shame!’
So Moab shall be a derision
And a dismay to all those about her.”
And the strongholds are surprised;
aThe mighty men’s hearts in Moab on that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
And he who gets out of the pit shall be caught in the asnare.
For upon Moab, upon it bI will bring
The year of their punishment,” says the Lord.
Because of exhaustion.
But aa fire shall come out of Heshbon,
A flame from the midst of bSihon,
And cshall devour the brow of Moab,
The crown of the head of the sons of tumult.
The people of Chemosh perish;
For your sons have been taken captive,
And your daughters captive.
aIn the latter days,” says the Lord. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
