# Isaiah 15
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. An oracle concerning Moab. Because Ar of Moab is laid waste in a night, Moab is undone; because Kir of Moab is laid waste in a night, Moab is undone.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. He has gone up to the temple, and to Dibon, to the high places to weep; over Nebo and over Medeba Moab wails. On every head is baldness; every beard is shorn;
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. in the streets they wear sackcloth; on the housetops and in the squares everyone wails and melts in tears.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Heshbon and Elealeh cry out; their voice is heard as far as Jahaz; therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud; his soul trembles.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. My heart cries out for Moab; her fugitives flee to Zoar, to Eglath-shelishiyah. For at the ascent of Luhith they go up weeping; on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of destruction;
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. the waters of Nimrim are a desolation; the grass is withered, the vegetation fails, the greenery is no more.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. Therefore the abundance they have gained and what they have laid up they carry away over the Brook of the Willows.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. For a cry has gone around the land of Moab; her wailing reaches to Eglaim; her wailing reaches to Beer-elim.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. For the waters of Dibon are full of blood; for I will bring upon Dibon even more, a lion for those of Moab who escape, for the remnant of the land.
