3.2 KiB

# Isaiah 15 (New King James Version) Proclamation Against Moab

Chapter 15
1 The burden against Moab.

Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste
And destroyed,
Because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste
And destroyed,

2 He has gone up to the temple and Dibon,

To the high places to weep.
Moab will wail over Nebo and over Medeba;
On all their heads will be baldness,
And every beard cut off.

3 In their streets they will clothe themselves with sackcloth;

On the tops of their houses
And in their streets
Everyone will wail, weeping bitterly.

4 Heshbon and Elealeh will cry out,

Their voice shall be heard as far as Jahaz;
Therefore the armed soldiers of Moab will cry out;
His life will be burdensome to him.

5 "My heart will cry out for Moab;

His fugitives shall flee to Zoar,
Like a three-year-old heifer.
For by the Ascent of Luhith
They will go up with weeping;
For in the way of Horonaim
They will raise up a cry of destruction,

6 For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate,

For the green grass has withered away;
The grass fails, there is nothing green.

7 Therefore the abundance they have gained,

And what they have laid up,
They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.

8 For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab,

Its wailing to Eglaim
And its wailing to Beer Elim.

9 For the waters of Dimon will be full of blood;

Because I will bring more upon Dimon,
Lions upon him who escapes from Moab,
And on the remnant of the land."
