Isaiah 15:2

Oracle Of Judgment On Moab

¹ Surely in a night Ar of Moab is devastated and ruined. Certainly in a night Kir of Moab is devastated and ruined. ² They have gone up to the temple and to Dibon, even to the high places to weep.
Moab wails over Nebo and Medeba;
Everyone’s head is bald and every beard is cut off.
³ They have dress themselves with sackcloth in their streets. On their housetops and in their squares everyone is wailing, taken down with tears.
