Isa.|15:1|-|The burden concerning Moab:Indeed in a night it is devastated—
Ar of Moab is cut off.Indeed in a night it is devastated—
Kir of Moab is cut off.
Isa.|15:2|-|They have gone up to their temple and to Dibon,That is, to their high places, to weep.
Over Nebo and over MedebaMoab howls;
|a|Upon all their heads is baldness;Every beard is shaved off.
Isa.|15:3|-|In their streets they have girded themselves with sackcloth;On their roofs
And in their open squares everyone will howl,Melting in tears.
Isa.|15:4|-|And Heshbon and Elealeh cry out;Their voice is heard as far as Jahaz.
Because of this the armed men of Moab raise a cry;Their soul quivers within them.
Isa.|15:5|-|My heart |a|cries out for Moab;Its fugitives reach as far as Zoar, as far as Eglath-shelishiyah:
By the ascent of LuhithWith weeping they will go up;
On the way that leads to HoronaimThey will raise up a cry of destruction;
Isa.|15:6|-|The waters of NimrimWill be a devastation;
The foliage will be dried up, the grass wasted away;There will be nothing green.
Isa.|15:7|-|As a result, the abundance they have producedAnd placed in reserve
Will be carried offTo the poplar brook.
Isa.|15:8|-|For the cry has gone aboutThe border of Moab;
Their howling goes as far as Eglaim,Even to Beer-elim their howling reaches.
Isa.|15:9|-|For the waters of Dimon are full of blood,For I will bring upon Dimon additional things:
Lions upon those in Moab who escapeAnd upon the remnant of the land.
