2 He has gone up to the temple, ^{▼▼Hebrew the house} and to ^bDibon,
to the high places ^{▼▼Or temple, even Dibon to the high places} to weep;
over ^dNebo and over ^eMedeba
Moab ^fwails.
On every head is ^gbaldness;
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 ^hHeshbon and ⁱElealeh cry out;
their voice is heard as far as ^jJahaz;
therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud;
his soul trembles.
5 My heart cries out for Moab;
her fugitives flee to Zoar,
to ^kEglath-shelishiyah.
For at the ^lascent of Luhith
they go up weeping;
on the road to ^mHoronaim
they raise a cry of destruction;

Isaiah 15:8

8 For a cry has gone
around the land of Moab;
her wailing reaches to Eglaim;
her wailing reaches to Beer-elim.
