11. I groan with sadness for Moab, with grief for Kir Heres.
12. The people of Moab wear themselves out going to their mountain shrines and to their temples to pray, but it will do them no good.
13. That is the message the Lord gave earlier about Moab.
14. And now the Lord says, “In exactly three years Moab's great wealth will disappear. Of its many people, only a few will survive, and they will be weak.”
