Isaiah 15:1-5

An Oracle Concerning Moab

1 An ^aoracle concerning ^bMoab.

Because ^cAr of Moab is laid waste in a night,
Moab is undone;
because ^dKir of Moab is laid waste in a night,
Moab is undone.
2 He has gone up to the temple, ^{▼▼Hebrew the house} and to ^fDibon,
to the high places ^{▼▼Or temple, even Dibon to the high places} to weep;
over ^hNebo and over ⁱMedeba
Moab ^jwails.
On every head is ^kbaldness;
every beard is shorn;
3 in the streets they wear sackcloth;
on the housetops and in the squares
everyone wails and melts in tears.
4 ^lHeshbon and ^mElealeh cry out;
their voice is heard as far as ⁿJahaz;
therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud;
his soul trembles.
5 My heart cries out for Moab;
her fugitives flee to Zoar,
to ^oEglath-shelishiyah.
For at the ^pascent of Luhith
they go up weeping;
on the road to ^qHoronaim
they raise a cry of destruction;
