ISAIAH ยท Chapter 15
15:1 The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste,
and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste,
and brought to silence;
15:2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep:
Moab shall wail over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be
baldness, and every beard cut off.
15:3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on
the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall wail, weeping
abundantly.
15:4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard
even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his
life shall be grievous unto him.
15:5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto
Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with
weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise
up a cry of destruction.
15:6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered
away, the grass fails, there is no green thing.
15:7 Therefore the abundance they have got, and that which they have
laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
15:8 For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling
thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim.
15:9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring
more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapes of Moab, and upon the remnant
of the land.
