1. This is what the Lord says: "I will definitely punish the people of Moab for the many crimes they did. Moab burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime.
2. So I will start a fire in Moab that will destroy the high towers of Kerioth. There will be terrible shouting and the sounds of a trumpet, and Moab will die.
3. So I will bring an end to the kings of Moab, and I will kill all the leaders of Moab." This is what the Lord said.
4. This is what the Lord says: "I will definitely punish Judah for the many crimes they did. They refused to obey the Lord's teachings and they did not keep his commands. Their ancestors believed lies, and those same lies caused the people of Judah to stop following God.
5. So I will start a fire in Judah that will destroy the high towers of Jerusalem."
6. This is what the Lord says: "I will definitely punish Israel for the many crimes they have done. They sold honest people for a little silver. They sold the poor for the price of a pair of sandals.
7. They pushed their faces into the ground and walked on them. They stopped listening to suffering people. Fathers and sons had sexual relations with the same woman. They ruined my holy name.
8. They took clothes from the poor, and then they sat on those clothes while worshiping at their altars. They loaned money to the poor, and then they took their clothes as a promise for payment. They made people pay fines and used the money to buy wine for themselves to drink in the temple of their god.
9. "But it was I who destroyed the Amorites before them. They were tall like cedar trees and as strong as oak trees, but I destroyed their fruit above and their roots below.
10. "I was the one who brought you from the land of Egypt. For 40 years I led you through the desert. I helped you take the Amorites' land.
11. I made some of your sons to be prophets and some of your young men to be Nazirites. People of Israel, it is true." This is what the Lord said.
12. "But you made the Nazirites drink wine. You told the prophets not to prophesy.
13. You are like a heavy weight to me. I am bent low like a wagon loaded with too much straw.
14. No one will escape�not even the fastest runner. Strong men will not be strong enough. Soldiers will not be able to save themselves.
15. People with bows and arrows will not survive. Fast runners will not escape. People on horses will not escape alive.
16. At that time even very brave soldiers will run away. They will not take the time to put their clothes on." This is what the Lord said.
