37. For every head will be baldand every beard clipped;upon all the hands will be gashes,and upon the loins sackcloth.
38. There will be lamentation everywhereupon all the housetops of Moaband in the streets,for I have broken Moablike a vessel in which is no pleasure,says the Lord.
39. How it is broken down! How they have wailed!How Moab has turned his back with shame!So Moab will be a derisionand a terror to all around him.
40. For thus says the Lord: Look, one will fly as an eagleand spread his wings against Moab.
41. Kerioth has been captured,and the strongholds have been seized,and the mighty men’s hearts in Moab in that daywill be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
