6. We have heard of Moab's pride.Its people strut and boast,but without reason.
7. Tell everyone in Moabto mourn for their nation.Tell them to cry and weepfor those fine raisinsof Kir-Hareseth.
8. Vineyards near Heshbonand Sibmahhave turned brown.The rulers of nationsused to get drunkon wine from those vineyardsthat spread to Jazer,then across the desertand beyond the sea.
9. Now I mourn like Jazerfor the vineyardsof Sibmah.I shed tears for Heshbonand for Elealeh.There will be no moreharvest celebrations
10. or joyful and happy times,while bringing in the crops.Singing and shouting are gonefrom the vineyards.There are no joyful shoutswhere grapes were pressed.God has silenced them all.
11. Deep in my heart I sufferfor Moab and Kir-Heres.
12. It's useless for Moab's peopleto wear themselves outby going to their altarsto worship and pray.
