Isaiah 15
|
|
| 15:1
The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence; |
|
| 15:2
He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab
shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness,
and every beard cut off. |
 (15:2-3) Every head will be bald, every beard will be shaved, and everyone will howl and weep abundantly.
(15:2) "On all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off."
(15:3) "They shall gird themselves with sackcloth ... and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly."
They put sackcloth on their loins.
|
| 15:3
In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of
their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping
abundantly.
|
| 15:4
And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto
Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be
grievous unto him.
|
| 15:5
My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an
heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping
shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of
destruction. |
|
| 15:6
For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away,
the grass faileth, there is no green thing. |
|
| 15:7
Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid
up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows. |
|
| 15:8
For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof
unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim. |
 (15:9) "The waters of Dimon shall be full of blood:
for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land."
After God destroys Moab, the rivers will be red with blood. He will send lions to
eat any survivors.
|
| 15:9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood:
for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the
land.
