The burden of Moab. Is. 25.10-12 · Jer. 48.1-47 · Ezek. 25.8-11 · Amos 2.1-3 · 2.8-11
¶
Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence:
he is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Me'deba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.
In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.
And Heshbon shall cry, and Ele-a'leh; their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.
My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zo'ar, a heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horona'im they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
