1. Against Moab.Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel:“Woe to Nebo!For it is plundered,Kirjathaim is shamed and taken;The high stronghold is shamed and dismayed—
2. No more praise of Moab.In Heshbon they have devised evil against her:‘Come, and let us cut her off as a nation.’You also shall be cut down, O Madmen!The sword shall pursue you;
3. A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim:‘Plundering and great destruction!’
4. “Moab is destroyed;Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard;
5. For in the Ascent of Luhith they ascend with continual weeping;For in the descent of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
