19. Stand by the highway and look,resident of Aroer! Ask him who is fleeing or her who is escaping: What happened?
20. Moab is put to shame, indeed dismayed.Wail and cry out! Declare by the Arnonthat Moab is destroyed.
21. “Judgment has come to the land of the plateau — to Holon, Jahzah, Mephaath,
22. Dibon, Nebo, Beth-diblathaim,
23. Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, Beth-meon,
24. Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of the land of Moab, those far and near.
25. Moab’s horn is chopped off; his arm is shattered.” This is the Lord’s declaration.
