Isaiah 15

Isaiah 15, verse 1. ¹The word against the land of Moab: In the night the land of Moab shall be destroyed, for the wall of the land of Moab shall be destroyed in the night. Isaiah 15, verse 2. ²Lament for yourselves, for even Dibon, where your altar is, shall be destroyed. Go there to weep over Nebo in the land of Moab. Wail, for baldness shall be on every head, and all arms shall be mutilated. Isaiah 15, verse 3. ³In her streets, dress yourselves with sackcloth and strike yourselves on her housetops. All of you cry out with bitter wailing in her streets. Isaiah 15, verse 4. ⁴Heshbon and Elealeh cry out until their voice is heard as far as Jahaz; therefore, the loins of the land of Moab cry aloud, for its soul shall know this. Isaiah 15, verse 5. ⁵The heart of the land of Moab cries aloud in itself as far as Zoar, like a three-year-old heifer. On the ascent of Luhith, they shall go up to you with weeping by way of Horonaim. She cries, “Destruction and earthquake!” Isaiah 15, verse 6. ⁶The water of Nemerim shall be a desert, and its grass shall fail, for there will be no green grass. Isaiah 15, verse 7. ⁷“Even so, will Moab be saved? For I will bring the Arabs upon the valley, and they shall take it. Isaiah 15, verse 8. ⁸For the cry reaches the border of the land of Moab, even of Eglaim, and its wailing as far as the well of Elim. Isaiah 15, verse 9. ⁹For the water of Dimon shall be full of blood, for I will bring Arabs upon Dimon. I shall take away the seed of Moab, Ariel and the remnant of Adama.
