Send you
the lambs for
the ruler of the land from Selah
to
the wilderness,
to the mountain
of the
daughter of
Zion.
Send the tribute
lambs to
the ruler of the land ,
from Sela
in
the desert
to the mount
of Daughter Zion.
For
it
shall
be
that,
as
wandering
birds ,
as
a
scattered
nest, so shall
the daughters of Moab be
at the fords of the Arnon .
Like
fluttering
birds pushed
out
of
the
nest, so are
the daughters of Moab at the fords of the Arnon :
Give counsel ,
execute
justice
; make
your
shade as the
night in
the
midst
of
the
noonday;
hide the outcasts
; don't
betray the fugitive
.
“
Give us
counsel; render
a
decision.
Shelter
us
at
noonday
with
shade as dark
as
night .
Hide the refugees
; do
not
betray the one
who
flees
.
Let my outcasts
dwell
with you; as
for
Moab,
be a covert
to
him
from the face
of
the
destroyer. For
the extortioner
is
brought
to
nothing
, destruction ceases
, the oppressors are
consumed
out
of
the land .
Let my fugitives
stay
with you; be a refuge
for
Moab
from the destroyer. ”
When
the oppressor
has
gone
, destruction has
ceased
, and
the oppressors have
vanished
from
the land ,
A throne shall
be established in loving
kindness;
and
one
shall
sit
thereon
in
truth,
in
the tent of David ,
judging,
and
seeking justice ,
and swift
to
do
righteousness.
in
loving
devotion
a throne will
be established in the tent of David .
A
judge
seeking justice and hastening
righteousness will
sit
on
it
in
faithfulness
.
We have heard of the
pride
of
Moab,
[that]
he
is
very
proud;
even
of
his
arrogance
, and
his pride ,
and his wrath;
his boastings
are
nothing
.
We have heard of Moab’s
pomposity
, his exceeding
pride and conceit,
his overflowing
arrogance.
But
his boasting
is
empty
.
Therefore shall
Moab wail for Moab ,
everyone
shall
wail:
for the raisin -
cakes of Kir Hareseth shall
you
mourn
, utterly stricken.
Therefore let
Moab wail ;
let
them
wail
together
for Moab .
Moan
for the raisin cakes of Kir -
hareseth, you
who
are
utterly stricken.
For the fields of Heshbon languish
, [and]
the vine
of Sibmah ;
the lords
of the nations have broken
down
the
choice
branches
of
it
, which reached even
to
Jazer ,
which
wandered
into
the wilderness;
its
shoots were
spread abroad,
they
passed over the sea.
For the fields of Heshbon have
withered
, along
with
the grapevines
of Sibmah .
The rulers
of the nations have trampled
its
choicest
vines
, which had
reached as
far
as
Jazer and
spread
toward
the desert.
Their
shoots had
spread out
and
passed over the sea.
Therefore
I will
weep with the
weeping
of
Jazer for the vine
of Sibmah; I will
water
you
with
my
tears,
Heshbon ,
and Elealeh :
for
on
your summer fruits
and on
your harvest the
[battle]
shout
is
fallen
.
So
I weep with Jazer for the vines
of Sibmah; I drench
Heshbon and Elealeh with
my
tears.
Triumphant
shouts
have
fallen
silent
over
your summer fruit
and your harvest.
Gladness
is
taken
away,
and
joy out
of
the fruitful
field
; and
in the vineyards there
shall
be
no singing,
neither
joyful
noise:
nobody
shall
tread
out
wine
in the presses
; I have made
the
[vintage]
shout
to cease
.
Joy and
gladness
are
removed
from
the orchard
; no
one
sings
or
shouts
in the vineyards .
No one
tramples
the
grapes
in the winepresses
; I have put
an
end
to the
cheering
.
Why
my heart sounds
like a harp for
Moab
, and
my inward
parts
for Kir Heres.
Therefore
my heart laments
for
Moab
like a harp, my inmost
being
for Kir -
heres.
It
shall
happen,
when Moab presents
himself,
when
he
wearies
himself
on the high place, and shall
come
to
his sanctuary to pray, that
he
shall
not
prevail
.
When Moab appears
on the high place, when
he
wearies
himself
and enters
his sanctuary to pray, it
will
do
him
no
good
.
This is the word
that Yahweh
spoke concerning Moab in
time
past
.
This is the message
that the
LORD
spoke earlier
concerning Moab.
But
now Yahweh
has
spoken,
saying
, Within
three years, as the years of
a
hireling
, the
glory
of Moab
shall
be
brought
into
contempt, with all his
great
multitude;
and the
remnant
shall
be very
small
and of
no
account
.
And
now the
LORD
says
, “In
three years, as a
hired
worker
counts
the years, Moab’s
splendor
will
become
an
object
of contempt, with all her
many
people.
And those
who
are
left
will
be few
and feeble
. ”
