Isa 15
1
THE WORD AGAINST THE LAND OF MOAB. By night the land of Moab shall be destroyed; for
by night the wall of the land of Moab shall be destroyed.
2
Grieve for yourselves; for even Debon, where your altar is, shall be destroyed: there
shall you go up to weep, over Nabau of the land of Moab: howl you: baldness shall
be on every head, and all arms shall be Gr. cut to pieces wounded.
3
Gird yourselves with sackcloth in her streets: and lament upon her roofs, and in her
streets, and in her ways; howl all of you with weeping.
4
For Esebon and Eleale have cried: their voice was heard to Jassa: therefore the loins
of the region of Moab cry aloud; her soul shall know.
5
The heart of the region of Moab cries within her to Segor; for it is as a heifer of
three years old: and on the ascent of Luith they shall go up to you weeping by the
way of Aroniim: she cries, Destruction, and trembling.
6
The water of Nemerim shall be desolate, and the grass thereof shall fail: for there
shall be no green grass.
7
Shall Moab even thus be delivered? for I will bring the Arabians upon the valley,
and they shall take it.
8
For the cry has reached the border of the region of Moab, even of Agalim; and her
howling has gone as far as the well of Ælim.
9
And the water of Dimon shall be filled with blood: for I will bring Arabians upon
Dimon, and I will take away the seed of Moab, and Ariel, and the remnant of Adama.
