Isaiah 15
15
1A message about Moab. The town of Ar in Moab is devastated, destroyed in a single night! The town of Kir in Moab is devastated, destroyed in a single night! 2The people of Dibon go up to their temple to weep at its high places. The Moabites weep over the towns of Nebo and Medeba. Every head has been shaved, every beard has been cut off in mourning. 3They wear sackcloth in their streets. On the rooftops and in the open squares they all weep, falling down crying. 4The people of Heshbon and Elealeh cry out in sadness, their voices heard as far as Jahaz. That's why even the bravest soldiers of Moab shout—because they're so terrified.
5I weep over Moab. Moabite refugees run all the way to Zoar and to Eglath-shelishiyah. Weeping they go up Luhith hill; crying for their destruction they walk along the road to Horonaim. 6The waters of Nimrim have all dried up. The grass is withered, all the vegetation has disappeared—nothing green is left. 7Everything they had gained, all their possessions, they have to carry across Willow River. 8Their cry of grief echoes through the whole country of Moab; their wailing and mourning extends all the way from Eglaim to Beer-elim. 9River Dimon#15:9. Or “Dibon.” is full of blood, but I will bring more upon the town of Dimon—a lion to attack the Moabite refugees and those who are left in the country.

Isaiah 15
15
1The burden of Moab. For in the night that Ar is devastated, Moab is ruined; for in the night that Kir is devastated, Moab is ruined.
2He has gone up to the shrine, to Dibon, to the high places to weep. Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba. Every head is bald, every beard shaven.
3In their streets they wear sackcloth. On their housetops and in their plazas, everyone wails, weeping profusely.
4Heshbon and Elealeh cry out. Their voice is heard as far as Jahaz. Therefore the soldiers of Moab cry aloud, his soul faints within him.
5My heart cries out for Moab. Her fugitives are as far as Zoar as a three year old heifer, for by the ascent of Luhith they go up with weeping, for on the way of Horonaim they raise a cry of distress.
6The waters of Nimrim are desolate. The grass is withered away, the new grass withers, there is nothing green.
7Therefore the riches they had gotten and whatever they have stored, they carry over the Wadi of Willows.
8For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab, the wailing to Eglaim, and the wailing to Beer-elim.
9For the waters of Dimon are full of blood, but I will bring on Dimon even more— a lion for those escaping from Moab, and for those remaining in the land.
