\s5
\c 15
\p
\v 1 A declaration about Moab.
\q1 Indeed, in one night Ar of Moab is laid waste and destroyed;
\q1 indeed, in one night Kir of Moab is laid waste and destroyed.
\q1
\v 2 They have gone up to the temple, the people of Dibon went up to the high places to weep;
\q1 Moab laments over Nebo and over Medeba.
\q1 All their heads are shaved bare and all their beards are cut off.
\s5
\q1
\v 3 In their streets they wear sackcloth; on their housetops
\q1 and in the square everyone wails, melting in tears.
\q1
\v 4 Heshbon and Elealeh call out for help; their sound is heard as far as Jahaz.
\q1 So the armed men of Moab call out for help; they tremble within themselves.
\s5
\q1
\v 5 My heart cries out for Moab; her fugitives flee to Zoar and to Eglath Shelishiyah.
\q1 They go up the ascent of Luhith weeping;
\q1 on the road to Horonaim they loudly wail over their destruction.
\q1
\v 6 The waters of Nimrim have dried up;
\q1 the grass is withered away and the new grass dies; nothing is green.
\q1
\v 7 The abundance they have grown and stored
\q1 they carry away over the brook of the poplars.
\s5
\q1
\v 8 The cry has gone around the territory of Moab;
\q1 the wailing as far as Eglaim and Beer Elim.
\q1
\v 9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood; but I will bring even more upon Dimon.
\q1 A lion will attack those who escape from Moab and also those remaining in the land.
