1 The burden of Moab. --So! the night will be ravaged by Ar of Moab is destroyed; So! night Kir of Moab is destroyed!
2 He goes back to the Bait and Divonne, rises to the heights, to weep; Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba; in all their heads, they all shaved their beards.
3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth; at the tops of their houses and in their streets all shall howl, weeping abundantly.
4 And yells Heshbon and Elealeh; their voice is heard as far as Jahaz; them soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his soul revolted him.
5 My heart cries out for Moab; running from it to Zoar, to third Eglah; back to Luhit weeping; on the road Horonaimskoy raise up a cry;

6 because the water dried up Nimrima, meadows withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.
7 Therefore, they are the remains of acquiring and that they carry over the brook of the willows.
8 For the cry has gone around the borders of Moab, to Eglaima his crying to Beer-elim his weeping;
9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood, and I will bring more upon Dimon - lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and to the remnant of the land.
