21. Judgment has come upon the plateau: on Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,
22. on Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,
23. on Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,
24. on Kerioth and on Bozrah: on all the cities of the land of Moab, far and near.
25. The horn of Moab is cut off,its arm is broken—oracle of the Lord.
26. Make him drunk because he set himself over against the Lord; let Moab swim in his vomit and become a laughingstock.
27. Has Israel not been a laughingstock to you? Was he caught among thieves that you wag your heads whenever you speak of him?
28. Abandon the cities, take shelter in the crags,inhabitants of Moab.Be like the dove that nestsin the walls of a gorge.
29. We have heard of the pride of Moab,pride beyond bounds:His loftiness, his pride, his scorn,his insolent heart.
30. I myself know his arrogance—oracle of the Lord—liar in word, liar in deed.
31. And so I wail over Moab,over all Moab I cry,over the people of Kir-heres I moan.
32. More than for Jazer I weep for you,vine of Sibmah.Your tendrils trailed down to the sea,as far as Jazer they stretched.Upon your summer harvest and your vintage,the destroyer has fallen.
