1. Of Moab. the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says:“Woe to Nebo!For it is laid waste.Kiriathaim is disappointed.It is taken.Misgab is put to shameand broken down.
2. The praise of Moab is no more.In Heshbon they have devised evil against her:‘Come! Let’s cut her off from being a nation.’You also, Madmen, will be brought to silence.The sword will pursue you.
3. The sound of a cry from Horonaim,desolation and great destruction!
4. Moab is destroyed.Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5. For they will go up by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping.For at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
