21. and judgment has arrived upon the land of the plains: upon Holon, and upon Jahzah, and upon Mephaath,
22. and upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon the house of Deblathaim,
23. and upon Kiriathaim, and upon the house of Gamul, and upon the house of Meon,
24. and upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, those far away and those nearby.
25. The horn of Moab has been cut away, and his arm has been crushed, says the Lord.
26. Inebriate him, for he has lifted himself up against the Lord. And Moab will thrust his hand into his own vomit, and also now he himself will become a derision.
27. For Israel had been a derision to them. It was as if you had discovered him among thieves. Because of your own words, then, which you have spoken against him, you will be led away captive.
28. Relinquish the cities, and live upon a rock, O inhabitants of Moab, and be like a dove nesting at the mouth of an opening at the summit.
29. We have listened to the arrogance of Moab; he is very proud: his exaltation, and arrogance, and pride, and the loftiness of his heart.
30. I myself know, says the Lord, his boasting, and that his ability is not in accord with it, nor is it in accord with what he has been striving to do.
31. For this reason, I will wail over Moab, and I will cry out to all of Moab, to the men on the brick wall who are lamenting.
32. O vineyard of Sibmah, I will weep for you, with the mourning of Jazer. Your offshoots have crossed over the sea. They have reached even to the sea of Jazer. The despoiler has rushed over your harvest and your vintage.
33. Rejoicing and exultation has been taken away from Carmel and from the land of Moab. And I have taken the wine from the winepresses. The treader of grapes will no longer sing the usual rhythmic chant.
