Isaiah Chapter 15 (NKJV Bible)
1 The [1†]burden against Moab. Because in the night [2†]Ar of [3†]Moab is laid waste And destroyed, Because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste And destroyed,
2 He has gone up to the temple and Dibon, To the high places to weep. Moab will wail over Nebo and over Medeba; [4†]On all their heads will be baldness, And every beard cut off.
3 In their streets they will clothe themselves with sackcloth; On the tops of their houses And in their streets Everyone will wail, [5†]weeping bitterly.
4 Heshbon and Elealeh will cry out, Their voice shall be heard as far as [6†]Jahaz; Therefore the armed soldiers of Moab will cry out; His life will be burdensome to him.
5 “My [7†] heart will cry out for Moab; His fugitives shall flee to Zoar, Like a three-year-old heifer. For [8†]by the Ascent of Luhith They will go up with weeping; For in the way of Horonaim They will raise up a cry of destruction,
6 For the waters [9†]of Nimrim will be desolate, For the green grass has withered away; The grass fails, there is nothing green.
7 Therefore the abundance they have gained, And what they have laid up, They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.
8 For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab, Its wailing to Eglaim And its wailing to Beer Elim.
9 For the waters of Dimon will be full of blood; Because I will bring more upon Dimon, [10†]Lions upon him who escapes from Moab, And on the remnant of the land.”
