18. “You people living in the town of Dibon, come down from your place of honorand sit on the dry ground,because the destroyer of Moab has come against you.And he has destroyed your strong, walled cities.
19. You people living in the town of Aroer,stand next to the road and watch.See the man running away and the woman escaping.Ask them, ‘What happened?’
20. Moab is filled with shame, because she is ruined.Cry, Moab, cry out!Announce at the Arnon Riverthat Moab is destroyed.
21. People on the high plain have been punished.Judgment has come to these towns:Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath;
22. Dibon, Nebo, and Beth Diblathaim;
23. Kiriathaim, Beth Gamul, and Beth Meon;
24. Kerioth and Bozrah.Judgment has come to all the towns of Moab, far and near.
25. Moab’s strength has been cut off,and its arm broken!” says the Lord.
