27. People of Moab, didn’t you laugh at the people of Israel?Were they caught among thieves?Whenever you talk about them you shake your heads in contempt.
28. People of Moab, abandon your cities.Live among the cliffs.Be like doves that make their nests at the entrance of a cave.
29. “We have heard about the arrogance of Moab’s people.They are very arrogant.They are very arrogant, conceited, and boastful.
30. I know how arrogant they are,” declares the Lord,“but it isn’t right.They brag and don’t do what they say.
31. That is why I will weep for Moab and cry for all of Moab.I will moan for the people of Kir Hareseth.
