CHAPTER 15.

Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; ^{▼▼ brought…: or, cut off} 2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off. 3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly. ^{▼▼ weeping…: Heb. descending into weeping, or, coming down with weeping} 4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him. 5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction. ^{▼▼ his…: or, to the borders thereof, even to Zoar, as an heifer
,} ^{▼▼ destruction: Heb. breaking} 6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing. ^{▼▼ desolate: Heb. desolations} 7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows. ^{▼▼ brook…: or, valley of the Arabians} 8 For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer–elim. 9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land. ^{▼▼ more: Heb. additions}
