30. I know his outburst.This is the Lord’s declaration.It is empty.His boast is empty.
31. Therefore, I will wail over Moab.I will cry out for Moab, all of it;he will moan for the men of Kir-heres.
32. I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah,with more than the weeping for Jazer.Your tendrils have extended to the sea;they have reached to the sea and to Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruit and grape harvest.
33. Joy and celebration are taken from the fertile fieldand from the land of Moab.I have stopped the flow of wine from the winepresses;no one will tread with shouts of joy.The shouting is not a shout of joy.
