Isaiah Chapter[BR] 15

1 An oracle against Moab: Ar in Moab is devastated, destroyed in a night. Kir in Moab is devastated, destroyed in a night.

2 Dibon went up to its temple to weep at its high places. Moab wails on Nebo and at Medeba. Every head is shaved; every beard is cut off.

3 In its streets they wear sackcloth; on its rooftops and in its public squares everyone wails, falling down and weeping.

Isaiah Chapter[BR] 15

4 Heshbon and Elealeh cry out; their voices are heard as far away as Jahaz. Therefore the soldiers of Moab cry out, and they tremble.

5 My heart cries out over Moab, whose fugitives *flee as far as Zoar, to Eglath-shelishiyah; they go up the slope of Luhith weeping; they raise a cry of destruction on the road to Horonaim.

Isaiah Chapter[BR] 15

6 The waters of Nimrim are desolate; the grass is withered, the foliage is gone, and the vegetation has vanished.

7 So they carry their wealth and belongings over the Wadi of the Willows.

8 For their cry echoes throughout the territory of Moab. Their wailing reaches Eglaim; their wailing reaches Beer-elim.

9 The waters of Dibon are full of blood, but I will bring on Dibon even more *than this -- a lion for those who escape from Moab, and for the survivors in the land.
