Isaiah 15
15
Proclamation Against Moab
1The #2 Kin. 3:4burden against Moab.
Because in the night #Deut. 2:9; Num. 21:28Ar of #Is. 15:1—16:14; Jer. 25:21; 48:1–47; Amos 2:1–3; Zeph. 2:8–11Moab is laid waste
And destroyed,
Because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste
And destroyed,
2He has gone up to the temple and Dibon,
To the high places to weep.
Moab will wail over Nebo and over Medeba;
#Lev. 21:5; Jer. 48:37On all their heads will be baldness,
And every beard cut off.
3In their streets they will clothe themselves with sackcloth;
On the tops of their houses
And in their streets
Everyone will wail, #Jer. 48:38weeping bitterly.
4Heshbon and Elealeh will cry out,
Their voice shall be heard as far as #Num. 21:28; 32:3; Jer. 48:34Jahaz;
Therefore the armed soldiers of Moab will cry out;
His life will be burdensome to him.
5“My#Is. 16:11; Jer. 48:31 heart will cry out for Moab;
His fugitives shall flee to Zoar,
Like a three-year-old heifer.
For #Jer. 48:5by the Ascent of Luhith
They will go up with weeping;
For in the way of Horonaim
They will raise up a cry of destruction,
6For the waters #Num. 32:36of Nimrim will be desolate,
For the green grass has withered away;
The grass fails, there is nothing green.
7Therefore the abundance they have gained,
And what they have laid up,
They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.
8For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab,
Its wailing to Eglaim
And its wailing to Beer Elim.
9For the waters of Dimon will be full of blood;
Because I will bring more upon Dimon,
#2 Kin. 17:25; Jer. 50:17Lions upon him who escapes from Moab,
And on the remnant of the land.”

Isaiah 15
15
1The burden of Moab.
For in a night, Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing. For in a night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to nothing. 2They have gone up to Bayith, and to Dibon, to the high places, to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and over Medeba. Baldness is on all of their heads. Every beard is cut off. 3In their streets, they clothe themselves in sackcloth. In their streets and on their housetops, everyone wails, weeping abundantly. 4Heshbon cries out with Elealeh. Their voice is heard even to Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud. Their souls tremble within them. 5My heart cries out for Moab! Her nobles flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for on the way to Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction. 6For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate; for the grass has withered away, the tender grass fails, there is no green thing. 7Therefore they will carry away the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have stored up, over the brook of the willows. 8For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab, its wailing to Eglaim, and its wailing to Beer Elim. 9For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; for I will bring yet more on Dimon, a lion on those of Moab who escape, and on the remnant of the land.
