King James Version
Send ye a
lamb `
to '
the ruler of the land ,
From Selah
in
the wilderness, Unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Send ye the
lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela
to
the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
And
it hath
come
to
pass
, As a wandering bird ,
a
nest
cast out, Are
daughters of Moab ,
`
at '
fords of Arnon.
For
it shall
be
, that,
as a wandering bird cast out of
the
nest
, so
the
daughters of Moab shall
be
at the
fords of Arnon.
Bring
ye
in
counsel, do
judgment ,
Make as
night
thy shadow in the midst of noon,
Hide outcasts,
the wanderer
reveal
not.
Take
counsel, execute
judgment ;
make thy shadow as
the
night
in the midst of the
noonday;
hide the outcasts;
bewray
not him
that
wandereth
.
Sojourn
in
thee
do
My
outcasts, O
Moab ,
Be a secret
hiding-place
to them ,
From the face of a
destroyer,
For ceased
hath
the extortioner, Finished
hath
been
a
destroyer
, Consumed
the treaders
down
out of the land.
Let
mine
outcasts dwell
with
thee
, Moab ;
be thou
a covert
to them from the face of the
spoiler:
for the extortioner is
at
an
end
, the
spoiler
ceaseth
, the oppressors
are
consumed
out of the land.
And established
in kindness
is
the throne ,
And `one'
hath
sat
on
it in truth ,
in the tent
of David, Judging and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
And in mercy
shall
the throne be
established:
and he
shall
sit
upon
it in truth in the tabernacle
of David, judging ,
and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
We have heard of the pride of Moab --
very proud ,
His pride
, and his arrogance
, and his wrath ,
Not
right
`are'
his devices
.
We have heard of the pride of Moab ;
he
is
very proud :
even
of
his haughtiness
, and his pride
, and his wrath :
but
his lies
shall
not
be
so
.
Therefore howl
doth
Moab for Moab, all
of
it
doth
howl ,
For the grape-cakes
of Kir-Hareseth
it
meditateth,
Surely they are smitten
.
Therefore shall
Moab howl
for Moab, every
one
shall
howl :
for the foundations
of Kirhareseth
shall
ye
mourn;
surely they are stricken
.
Because
fields of Heshbon languish, The vine of Sibmah ,
Lords of nations
did
beat
her
choice
vines
, Unto
Jazer
they have
come, They have
wandered in
a
wilderness ,
Her plants
have
spread
themselves
, They have
passed
over a
sea.
For
the
fields of Heshbon languish, and
the vine of Sibmah :
the
lords of the
heathen
have
broken
down
the
principal
plants
thereof
, they are
come even
unto
Jazer
, they wandered through
the
wilderness :
her branches
are
stretched
out
, they are
gone
over the
sea.
Therefore I weep
with the weeping of Jazer ,
The vine of Sibmah ,
I water thee `
with '
my tear
, O Heshbon and Elealeh ,
For --
for thy summer fruits ,
and for thy harvest ,
The
shouting
hath
fallen.
Therefore I will
bewail
with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah :
I will
water thee with my tears
, O Heshbon ,
and Elealeh :
for the
shouting
for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is
fallen.
And removed
have
been
gladness and joy from
the fruitful
field ,
And in vineyards they
sing
not,
nor
shout
, Wine in the
presses treadeth
not
the
treader,
Shouting
I have caused
to cease.
And gladness is
taken
away,
and joy out
of
the plentiful
field ;
and in the
vineyards there
shall
be
no
singing
, neither
shall
there
be
shouting:
the
treaders
shall
tread
out
no
wine in their
presses ;
I have made
their
vintage
shouting
to cease.
Therefore
my bowels for Moab as
a
harp
do
sound
, And mine inward parts for Kir-Haresh
.
Wherefore
my bowels shall
sound
like
an
harp
for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kirharesh
.
And it hath
come to pass, when it hath
been
seen ,
That weary
hath
been
Moab on the high place, And
he hath
come unto
his sanctuary to pray ,
And
is
not able
.
And it shall
come to pass, when it is
seen that Moab is
weary
on the high place, that
he shall
come to
his sanctuary to pray ;
but
he
shall
not prevail
.
This `
is '
the word that Jehovah
hath spoken unto
Moab from
that time ,
This is the word that the
LORD
hath spoken concerning
Moab since
that time .
And
now hath Jehovah
spoken, saying, `In
three years, as years of an hireling, Lightly
esteemed
is
the honour
of Moab, With all the
great multitude ,
And the remnant `is'
little,
small ,
not
mighty!'
But
now the
LORD
hath spoken, saying, Within
three years, as the
years of an hireling, and
the glory
of Moab shall
be
contemned
, with all that
great multitude ;
and the remnant shall
be
very
small and
feeble.
