21. The high flatlands have been judged. So have Holon, Jahzah and Mephaath.
22. Dibon, Nebo and Beth Diblathaim have been judged.
23. So have Kiriathaim, Beth Gamul and Beth Meon.
24. Kerioth and Bozrah have also been judged. And so have all of the towns of Moab, far and near alike.
25. Moab 's power is gone. Its strength is broken," announces the Lord.
26. "Moab's people think they are better than I am. So let their enemies make them drunk. Let the people get sick and throw up. Let them roll around in the mess they have made. Let people laugh at them.
27. Moab , you laughed at Israel, didn't you? Were Israel's people caught among robbers? Is that why you shake your head at them? Is that why you make fun of them every time you talk about them?
28. Leave your towns, you who live in Moab. Go and live among the rocks. Be like a dove that makes its nest at the mouth of a cave.
29. "We have heard all about Moab's pride. We have heard how very proud they are. They think they are so much better than others. Their pride reaches deep down inside their hearts.
