Isaiah 15:2-9 ▼

2 He has gone up to Bajith and to Dibon, to the high places to weep. Over Nebo and over Medeba Moab is wailing. On all its heads is baldness, and every beard is cut off.

3 In its streets they have girded on sackcloth; on its rooftops and in the square, everyone wails, going down with weeping.

4 And Heshbon and Elealeh cry out; as far as Jahaz their voice is heard. Upon thus the armed ones of Moab cry out; his soul trembles within him.

5 My heart cries out for Moab, for her fugitives are as far as Zoar, to Eglath-Shelishiyyah; for the Ascent of Luhith—with weeping he goes up on it; for on the road of Horonaim they raise up a cry from destruction.

6 For the waters of Nimrim have become desolations, for the grass has withered away; the vegetation is finished—nothing green is there.

7 Upon thus, the abundance he made and their store, they carry them over the Brook of the Willows.

8 For the outcry has gone all around the borders of Moab; as far as Eglaim is her howling, and her howling is in Beer-elim.

9 For the waters of Dimon have been full of blood, for I will put upon Dimon added things: A lion for the survivor of Moab, and for the remnant of the land.
