31. But I’ll still wail for Moab;I’ll cry out for all Moab;I’ll sob for the people of Kir-heres.
32. I’ll weep for you, vine of Sibmah,more than I would for Jazer.Though your branches extended to the seaand reached the coast of Jazer,now the destroyer has cometo harvest your grapes and summer fruits.
33. Joy and gladness have been takenfrom the orchards and farms of Moab.I have stopped making wine in the presses.No one shouts with joywhile treading the grapes.Though there are shouts,they are not shouts of joy!
34. Screams are heard from Heshbonto Elealeh and Jahaz;their cries resound from Zoarto Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah.Even the waters of Nimrim are dried up.
35. I’ll put an end to Moab,declares the Lord, for making offerings on the shrines,and worshipping their gods.
