Isaiah 15:4

Oracle Of Judgment On Moab

³ In their streets they are girded with sackcloth; on their roofs, and in their broadways, every one howleth, melted into tears. ⁴ And Heshbon crieth, and Elealeh: their voice is heard unto Jahaz. Therefore the armed men of Moab cry out: his soul trembleth in him. ⁵ My heart crieth out for Moab; their fugitives have fled unto Zoar, unto Eglath-Sheli-shijah: for by the ascent of Luhith, with weeping they go up by it; for in the way of Horonaim they raise up a cry of destruction.
