1 Of Moab. Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled; Kiriathaim is put to shame, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and dismayed.

2 The praise of Moab is no more; In Heshbon they have devised evil against her: 'Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation.' Thou also, O Madmen, shalt be brought to silence; The sword shall pursue thee.

3 Hark! a cry from Horonaim, Spoiling and great destruction!

4 Moab is destroyed; Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

5 For by the ascent of Luhith With continual weeping shall they go up; For in the going down of Horonaim They have heard the distressing cry of destruction.
