[1]Against MoabH4124 thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; WoeH1945 unto NeboH5015! for it is spoiledH7703[H8795]: KiriathaimH7156 is confoundedH3001[H8689] and takenH3920[H8738]: MisgabH4869 is confoundedH3001[H8689] and dismayedH2865.[H8804] [No book]
[2]There shall be no more praiseH8416 of MoabH4124: in HeshbonH2809 they have devisedH2803[H8804] evilH7451 against it; comeH3212[H8798], and let us cut it offH3772[H8686] from being a nationH1471.

[5]For in the going upH4608 of LuhithH3872 continualH1065 weepingH1065 shall go upH5927[H8799]; for in the going downH4174 of HoronaimH2773 the enemiesH6862 have heardH8085[H8804] a cryH6818 of destructionH7667. [No book]
[6]FleeH5127[H8798], saveH4422[H8761] your livesH5315, and beH1961[H8799] like the heathH6176 in the wildernessH4057. [No book]
[7]For because thou hast trustedH982[H8800] in thy worksH4639 and in thy treasuresH214, thou shalt also be takenH3920[H8735]: and ChemoshH3645 shall go forthH3318[H8804] into captivityH1473 with his priestsH3548 and his princesH8269 togetherH3162. [No book]
[8]And the spoilerH7703[H8802] shall comeH935[H8799] upon every cityH5892, and no cityH5892 shall escapeH4422[H8735]: the valleyH6010 also shall perishH6[H8804], and the plainH4334 shall be destroyedH8045[H8738], as the LORDH3068 hath spokenH559.[H8804] [No book]

[10]CursedH779[H8803] be he that doethH6213[H8802] the workH4399 of the LORDH3068 deceitfullyH7423, and cursedH779[H8803] be he that keepeth backH4513[H8802] his swordH2719 from bloodH1818. [No book]
[11]MoabH4124 hath been at easeH7599[H8768] from his youthH5271, and he hath settledH8252[H8802] on his leesH8105, and hath not been emptiedH7324[H8717] from vesselH3627 to vesselH3627, neither hath he goneH1980[H8804] into captivityH1473: therefore his tasteH2940 remainedH5975[H8804] in him, and his scentH7381 is not changedH4171.[H8738] [No book]

[13]And MoabH4124 shall be ashamedH954[H8804] of ChemoshH3645, as the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 was ashamedH954[H8804] of BethelH1008 their confidenceH4009. [No book]
[14]How sayH559[H8799] ye, We are mightyH1368 and strongH2428 menH582 for the warH4421? [No book]

[16]The calamityH343 of MoabH4124 is nearH7138 to comeH935[H8800], and his afflictionH7451 hastethH4116[H8765] fastH3966. [No book]
[17]All ye that are aboutH5439 him, bemoanH5110[H8798] him; and all ye that knowH3045[H8802] his nameH8034, sayH559[H8798], How is the strongH5797 staffH4294 brokenH7665[H8738], and the beautifulH8597 rodH4731! [No book]
[18]Thou daughterH1323 that dost inhabitH3427[H8802] DibonH1769, come downH3381[H8798] from thy gloryH3519, and sitH3427[H8798] in thirstH6772; for the spoilerH7703[H8802] of MoabH4124 shall comeH5927[H8804] upon thee, and he shall destroyH7843[H8765] thy strong holdsH4013. [No book]
[19]O inhabitantH3427[H8802] of AroerH6177, standH5975[H8798] by the wayH1870, and espyH6822[H8761]; askH7592[H8798] him that fleethH5127[H8801], and her that escapethH4422[H8737], and sayH559[H8798], What is doneH1961?[H8738] [No book]
[20]MoabH4124 is confoundedH3001[H8689]; for it is broken downH2865[H8804]: howlH3213[H8685] and cryH2199[H8798]; tellH5046[H8685] ye it in ArnonH769, that MoabH4124 H7703is spoiledH8795 [No book]

[25]The hornH7161 of MoabH4124 is cut offH1438[H8738], and his armH2220 is brokenH7665[H8738], saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. [No book]
[26]Make ye him drunkenH7937[H8685]: for he magnifiedH1431[H8689] himself against the LORDH3068: MoabH4124 also shall wallowH5606[H8804] in his vomitH6892, and he also shall be in derisionH7814. [No book]
[27]For was not IsraelH3478 a derisionH7814 unto thee? was he foundH4672[H8738] among thievesH1590? for sinceH1767 thou spakestH1697 of him, thou skippedstH5110 for joyH8709. [No book]
[28]O ye that dwellH3427[H8802] in MoabH4124, leaveH5800[H8798] the citiesH5892, and dwellH7931[H8798] in the rockH5553, and be like the doveH3123 that maketh her nestH7077[H8762] in the sidesH5676 of the hole'sH6354 mouthH6310. [No book]
[29]We have heardH8085[H8804] the prideH1347 of MoabH4124, (heH1931 is exceedingH3966 proudH1343) his loftinessH1363, and his arrogancyH1346, and his prideH1347, and the haughtinessH7312 of his heartH3820. [No book]
[30]I knowH3045[H8804] his wrathH5678, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068; but it shall not be so; his liesH907 shall not so effectH6213 itH8804. [No book]
[31]Therefore will I howlH3213[H8686] for MoabH4124, and I will cry outH2199[H8799] for all MoabH4124; mine heart shall mournH1897[H8799] for the menH582 of KirheresH7025. [No book]
[32]O vineH1612 of SibmahH7643, I will weepH1058[H8799] for thee with the weepingH1065 of JazerH3270: thy plantsH5189 are gone overH5674[H8804] the seaH3220, they reachH5060[H8804] even to the seaH3220 of JazerH3270: the spoilerH7703[H8802] is fallenH5307[H8804] upon thy summer fruitsH7019 and upon thy vintageH1210. [No book]
[33]And joyH8057 and gladnessH1524 is takenH622[H8738] from the plentiful fieldH3759, and from the landH776 of MoabH4124; and I have caused wineH3196 to failH7673[H8689] from the winepressesH3342: none shall treadH1869[H8799] with shoutingH1959; their shoutingH1959 shall be no shoutingH1959. [No book]
[34]From the cryH2201 of HeshbonH2809 even unto ElealehH500, and even unto JahazH3096, have they utteredH5414[H8804] their voiceH6963, from ZoarH6820 even unto HoronaimH2773, as an heiferH5697 of three years oldH7992: for the watersH4325 also of NimrimH5249 shall be desolateH4923. [No book]
[35]Moreover I will cause to ceaseH7673[H8689] in MoabH4124, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, him that offerethH5927[H8688] in the high placesH1116, and him that burneth incenseH6999[H8688] to his godsH430. [No book]
[36]Therefore mine heartH3820 shall soundH1993[H8799] for MoabH4124 like pipesH2485, and mine heartH3820 shall soundH1993[H8799] like pipesH2485 for the menH582 of KirheresH7025: because the richesH3502 that he hath gottenH6213[H8804] are perishedH6.[H8804] [No book]
[37]For every headH7218 shall be baldH7144, and every beardH2206 clippedH1639[H8803]: upon all the handsH3027 shall be cuttingsH1417, and upon the loinsH4975 sackclothH8242. [No book]
[38]There shall be lamentationH4553 generally upon all the housetopsH1406 of MoabH4124, and in the streetsH7339 thereof: for I have brokenH7665[H8804] MoabH4124 like a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. [No book]
[39]They shall howlH3213[H8685], saying, How is it broken downH2865[H8804]! how hath MoabH4124 turnedH6437[H8689] the backH6203 with shameH954[H8804]! so shall MoabH4124 be a derisionH7814 and a dismayingH4288 to all them about himH5439. [No book]
[40]For thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068; Behold, he shall flyH1675[H8799] as an eagleH5404, and shall spreadH6566[H8804] his wingsH3671 over MoabH4124. [No book]
[41]KeriothH7152 is takenH3920[H8738], and the strong holdsH4679 are surprisedH8610[H8738], and the mighty men'sH1368 heartsH3820 in MoabH4124 at that dayH3117 shall be as the heartH3820 of a womanH802 in her pangsH6887.[H8688] [No book]
[42]And MoabH4124 shall be destroyedH8045[H8738] from being a peopleH5971, because he hath magnifiedH1431[H8689] himself against the LORDH3068. [No book]
[43]FearH6343, and the pitH6354, and the snareH6341, shall be upon thee, O inhabitantH3427[H8802] of MoabH4124, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. [No book]
[44]He that fleethH5127[H8801][H8675][H5211] fromH6440 the fearH6343 shall fallH5307[H8799] into the pitH6354; and he that getteth upH5927[H8802] out of the pitH6354 shall be takenH3920[H8735] in the snareH6341: for I will bringH935[H8686] upon it, even upon MoabH4124, the yearH8141 of their visitationH6486, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. [No book]
[45]They that fledH5127[H8801] stoodH5975[H8804] under the shadowH6738 of HeshbonH2809 because of the forceH3581: but a fireH784 shall come forthH3318[H8804] out of HeshbonH2809, and a flameH3852 from the midstH996 of SihonH5511, and shall devourH398[H8799] the cornerH6285 of MoabH4124, and the crown of the headH6936 of the tumultuousH7588 onesH1121.

[46]WoeH188 be unto thee, O MoabH4124! the peopleH5971 of ChemoshH3645 perishethH6[H8804]: for thy sonsH1121 are takenH3947[H8795] captivesH7628, and thy daughtersH1323 captivesH7633. [No book]
[47]Yet will I bring againH7725[H8804] the captivityH7622 of MoabH4124 in the latterH319 daysH3117, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. Thus farH2008 is the judgmentH4941 of MoabH4124. [No book]
