1: SendH7971 the lambH3733 to the rulerH4910 of the landH0776 from SelaH5554 to the wilderness,H4057 toH0413 the mountH2022 of the daughterH1323 of Zion.H6726

2: For it shall be,H1961 as a birdH5775 wanderingH5074 the nest,H7064 thrown outH7971 of [So] shall beH1961 the daughtersH1323 of MoabH4124 at the fordsH4569 of the Arnon.H0769 TakeH0935 counsel,H6098 executeH6213 judgment-H6415 MakeH7896 like the nightH3915 your shadowH6738 in the middleH8432 of the day-H6672 HideH5641 the outcasts-H5080 him who escapesH5074 notH0408 do betray.H1540

4: Let dwellH1481 My outcastsH5080 Moab-H4124 BeH1933 a shelterH5643 from the faceH6440 of the spoiler.H7703 ForH3588 is at an end,H0656 the extortionerH4160 ceases,H3615 DevastationH7701 are consumedH8552 the oppressorsH7429 outH4480 of the land.H0776

5: And will be established-H3559 in mercyH2617 the throneH3678 and one will sitH3427 on itH5921 in truthH0571 in the tabernacleH0168 of David,H1732 Judging,H8199 and seekingH1875 justice,H4941 and hasteningH4106 righteousness.H6664

6: We have heardH8085 of the prideH1347 of Moab-H4124 [He is] proud-H1341 veryH3966 of his haughtiness,H1346 and his pride,H1347 and his wrath-H5678 [shall] not [be]H3808 soH3651 [But] his lies.H0907

7: ThereforeH3651 shall wailH3213 MoabH4124 for Moab,H4124 EveryoneH3605 shall wail.H3213 For the foundationsH0808 Kir HaresethH7025 you shall mourn-H1897 surelyH0389 [they are] stricken.H5218

8: ForH3588 the fieldsH7709 of HeshbonH2809 languish,H0535 [And] the vineH1612 of Sibmah-H7643 the lordsH1167 of the nationsH1471 have broken downH1986 its choice plantsH8291 toH5704 Jazer,H3270 which have reachedH5060 and wanderedH8582 through the wilderness-H4057 Her branchesH7976 are stretched out,H5203 they are gone overH5674 the sea.H3220

9: UponH5921 thereforeH3651 I will bewailH1058 with the weepingH1065 of JazerH3270 the vineH1612 of Sibmah-H7643 I will drench youH7301 with my tears,H1832 Heshbon,H2809 and Elealeh-H0500 forH3588 OverH5921 your summer fruitsH7019 andH5921 your harvestH7105 battle criesH1959 have fallen.H5307

10: And is taken away,H0622 GladnessH8057 and joyH1524 fromH4480 the plentiful field-H3759 and in the vineyardsH3754 noH3808 there will be singing,H7442 norH3808 will there be shouting-H7321 wineH3196 in presses-H3342 NoH3808 will tread outH1869 the treadersH1869 I have made their shoutingH1959 cease.H7673

11: UponH5921 thusH3651 my heartH4578 for Moab,H4124 like a harpH3658 shall resoundH1993 and my inner beingH7130 Kir Heres.H7025

12: And it shall come to pass,H1961 whenH3588 it is seenH7200 thatH3588 is wearyH3811 MoabH4124 onH5921 the high place,H1116 that he will comeH0935 toH0413 his sanctuaryH4720 to pray-H6419 but notH3808 he will prevail.H3201

13: This [is]H2088 the wordH1697 whichH0834 has spokenH1696 YahwehH3069 concerningH0413 MoabH4124 since then.H0227

14: But nowH6258 has spoken,H1696 YahwehH3068 saying,H0559 Within threeH7969 years,H8141 as the yearsH8141 of a hired man,H7916 and will be despised,H7034 the gloryH3519 of MoabH4124 with allH3605 that multitude-H1995 greatH7227 and the remnant [will be]H7605 veryH4592 smallH4213 notH3808 [and] feeble.H3524
