Isaiah 15:4

Oracle Of Judgment On Moab

³ They have dress themselves with sackcloth in their streets. On their housetops and in their squares everyone is wailing, taken down with tears. ⁴ Heshbon and Elealeh also cry out,
Their voice is heard all the way to Jahaz;
Therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud;
His soul trembles within him.
⁵ My heart cries out for Moab! The people have fled to the town of Zoar, and to Eglath Shelishiyah. Some climb the road to Luhith. They weep as they go. Some escape to Horonaim, grieving loudly.
