19. Stand along the road, keep watch,enthroned Aroer;Ask the fleeing man, the escaping woman:ask them what has happened.
20. “Moab is put to shame, destroyed.”Wail and cry out,Proclaim it at the Arnon:“Moab is destroyed!”
21. Judgment has come upon the plateau: on Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,
22. on Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,
23. on Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,
24. on Kerioth and on Bozrah: on all the cities of the land of Moab, far and near.
25. The horn of Moab is cut off,its arm is broken—oracle of the Lord.
26. Make him drunk because he set himself over against the Lord; let Moab swim in his vomit and become a laughingstock.
27. Has Israel not been a laughingstock to you? Was he caught among thieves that you wag your heads whenever you speak of him?
