‏ Isaiah 15:2


2 They went up to the temple;
tn Heb “house.”

the people of Dibon went up to the high places to lament.
tn Heb “even Dibon [to] the high places to weep.” The verb “went up” does double duty in the parallel structure.

Because of what happened to Nebo and Medeba,
tn Heb “over [or “for”] Nebo and over [or “for”] Medeba.”
Moab wails.
Every head is shaved bare,
every beard is trimmed off.
sn Shaving the head and beard were outward signs of mourning and grief.
