| 15 | Isaiah | ||
| 1 | An oracle concerning Moab. because Kir is laid waste in a night Moab is undone. | God will destroy Moab. Is.15.1-9 | |
| 2 | The daughter of Dibon has gone up to the high places to weep; over Nebo and over Medeba Moab wails. On every head is baldness, every beard is shorn; | ||
| 3 | in the streets they gird on sackcloth; on the housetops and in the squares every one wails and melts in tears. | ||
| 4 | Heshbon and Elealeh cry out, their voice is heard as far as Jahaz; therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud; his soul trembles. | ||
| 5 | My heart cries out for Moab; his fugitives flee to Zoar, to Eglath-shelishiyah. For at the ascent of Luhith they go up weeping; on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of destruction; | ||
| 6 | the waters of Nimrim are a desolation; the grass is withered, the new growth fails, the verdure is no more. | ||
| 7 | Therefore the abundance they have gained and what they have laid up they carry away over the Brook of the Willows. | ||
| 8 | For a cry has gone round the land of Moab; the wailing reaches to Eglaim, the wailing reaches to Beer-elim. | ||
| 9 | For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; yet I will bring upon Dibon even more, a lion for those of Moab who escape, for the remnant of the land. | ||
