Isaiah 15:4

Oracle Of Judgment On Moab

³ In their streets they are covering themselves with haircloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their public places, there is crying and bitter weeping. ⁴ Heshbon is crying out, and Elealeh; their voice is sounding even to Jahaz: for this cause the heart of Moab is shaking; his soul is shaking with fear. ⁵ My heart is crying out for Moab; her people go in flight to Zoar, and to Eglath-shelishiyah: for they go up with weeping by the slope of Luhith; on the way to Horonaim they send up a cry of destruction.
